Therefore, in some cases, paper documents are still necessary to exist.

3. High dependence on technology

Paperless office requires employees to have certain computer technology and network technology capabilities. If employees are not familiar with these technologies or do not adapt to them, it may affect work efficiency and effectiveness.

Enterprises and institutions need to choose the right office mode according to their own actual situation and needs, not only to pursue efficiency and cost-effectiveness, but also to pay attention to safety and reliability. At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen staff training and technical support, improve staff computer technology and network technology capabilities, in order to better adapt to the needs of paperless office.
