Work

The first type of technology that was used in the workplace were simple time clocks so workers knew when they were able to have lunch breaks and leave at the end of the day.

All work was done using pen and paper.

The first way work places sent paper copies to another person or workplace was the fax machine.

They used rotary dial phones to call others.

Work places are very different today. There is so much technology that helps workers do their jobs.

Some different types of technology in an office include:

• computers/ laptops to type, save documents, send emails, look up information and have video meetings

• printers to make copies of important papers

• scanners to send important papers to computers

• workers use their own mobile phones to make calls
