Is Paperless Office a Reality or Not?

Indeed, paperless office is a reality. Decades ago, who had thought computer would be so advanced that even a child knows about its whereabouts. The complicated machines we encounter today in our lives,would not had even thought about by our forefathers.

People will face difficulties, get exacerbated upon new paperless tradition, but gradually they will accept likewise other technologies.

Ofcourse its a reality,but up to certain extent. We should not be totally dependent on the computer to get the jobs done and it is also the fact that at some points like "appointment letters", Property paper like stamp paper and all, it requires physical existence, logically it would only be faster, but to get the job done it must be physically present at your sight.

Certainly, it is a reality. Because this is a digital world, in which there is no role for papers. The offices with full of records,books and papers became history. Nowadays computers started to rule the world. Then what is the need of papers? I think all the HARD COPIES will turn to SOFT COPIES in near future.

We may think tat by using computers we can store any type of datas and it is easy too, then why is the need of papers. But i think so it's absolutely wrong. because even we get some problems in computers but definetly not with our paper records...

Paperless office to some extent is fine. but i dont think so it is applicable to all industries, departments.

We can see the processing like searching will be fast in computerized offices than in an offices based on papers etc., it will be possible to make every office as paperless office. It will be a little difficult to organize but gradually the offices can be made computerized, and reduction in use of paper will save our environment up to some extent.

Though the topic sounds bit cool but it is not that easy to apply this thought in real. I think no matter how much progress we have made or are making or will make we need the paper in some specific areas. If we consider the educational bodies, there we find that paper is really needed to provide the students with all of their certificates and results which are ultimately needed to earn a job for him in this digital world.

For the case of publication industries, though we are in the era of e-books and digital magazines but still one can not deny the real charm of reading a printed books. At the end if we are really concerned about the environment then I think it is better to increase the no of trees rather than to cut our needs because whatever we will do we need the natural resources in form or another.

In the era of global warming we have to use our resources properly. Hence the need for minimum use of paper and their by saving the trees and the environment. If we organise computer storage properly it will be very much easier to retrieve document when need arise. The adage 'Think before you print' should always be remembered.

Actually, paperless office is not a reality but it is in improvement stage. We need paper in educational system, offices, etc. If office will become paper less then many people will become jobless for eg. Postman who carries and delivers the letter and other things. Many printers will become waste.

There are many threat exist in internet world hence we can't rely for transmission of secure data and the people who don't have computer or digital devices, they need data which is printed on paper.

i agree with u shishir..the paper less office could be actualy termed as an office where paper size and numbers are reducing day by day because of computers but we can't say that the papers are not finding any corners in office as in many ways we can't just leave the application based on papers as it's not at all complicated to do some task over it and computer illiterate can't do task's on computers and in-spite of the fact that the person is intelligent that many other persons.so paper again come to the rescue of that kind of man.
