Office automation tends to mean the various hardware used to make your job easier. Computers for storing and sending information(via email), PA systems, automated payroll systems, software, including Microsoft Office, and even printers, copiers, and fax machines. The majority of modern offices are 'automated' this way, to save valuable time in doing time-costly tasks.
