Office furniture and fittings play an important role in the smooth and efficient performance of office work. Office furniture includes desks, tables, chairs, racks, trays and cabinets.
Now-a-days in a large business house, office manager cannot perform all the official duties alone. He has to delegate his power to his subordinates and these subordinates are called departmental managers. Office is the central nerve of the organisation and as such, the general manager must be in touch with each departmental manager.
Office manager is an executive who is in-charge of office and whose chief function is to organise and control office. Office work is regarded as a service function or staff function and therefore an office manager may assume the position of a staff executive or service executive.
