Office Policy Wallpapers That Employees Actually See
Let's be honest: employees ignore policy emails. They walk past posters. But there's one thing they can't ignore—their computer screen.
Text wallpapers put your policy reminders exactly where they'll be seen: on the desktop, visible every time someone uses the computer. It's perfect for shared workstations, kiosks, meeting room displays, and any environment where passive reminders beat active interruptions.

Design Tips for Policy Wallpapers
- Keep it brief - Scannable text, not paragraphs

- High contrast - Dark text on light background (or vice versa) for readability
- Break into lines - Avoid walls of text; use line breaks
- Company colors optional - Professional but not required
