The way you design a workstation can have a significant impact on worker productivity. Using workstation ergonomics will help reduce fatigue, and increase the safety of your employees. The better you adapt your workstation to the comfort and convenience of your employees, the safer and happier they will be. In the long run this can only help your organization as a whole. A convenient store employee deals with a constant flow of traffic in and out of the store.
Tobacco products are the most frequently purchased products in the store, next to gasoline.
With new laws on the placement of all Tabasco products, the employees involvement in retrieving the products has substantially increased. Tobacco products should be placed in an area behind the register that is within reach of the employee, with as little movement as possible. This will help reduce the time it takes to retrieve the products, and reduce the amount of movement required of the employee to retrieve the tobacco product. This will make the entire tobacco purchase process much more efficient for the employee and the store. At most grocery stores today, registers are placed at eye level.
