A table or desk is provided with a horizontally enlarged worksurface, and a bracket-supported rear panel arrangement can be readily mounted to a project upwardly along a rear edge of the worksurface. The panel arrangement includes a pair of upright brackets which have C-shaped lower parts which create a clamping engagement around the rear edge of the worksurface so that special constructional features on the worksurface are not required. The brackets have upright parts which project upwardly and, along rear vertical edges thereof, have attachment structure for permitting an upright panel to be attached thereto, which panel is then disposed directly adjacent the rear edge of the worksurface and projects upwardly and longitudinally thereof. The bracket includes first and second attachment structures associated therewith, with one attachment structure permitting a grid-like panel to be mounted thereon. Alternatively, or in conjunction with the grid-like panel, the second attachment structure permits a privacy screen or tack board to be attached to the brackets, the latter being spaced rearwardly of the location where the grid-like panel mounts.

In a freestanding desk or table having an enlarged worksurface defining thereon an enlarged and substantially horizontally planar upper surface, said worksurface defining thereon a horizontally and longitudinally extending rear edge, and an upright bracket-supported panel arrangement mounted on said worksurface and projecting upwardly therefrom in the vicinity of said rear edge, the improvement wherein said arrangement comprises: at least two upright brackets removably attached to said worksurface adjacent the rear edge thereof in longitudinally spaced relation therealong; a horizontally elongated upright panel fixedly but removably attached to said brackets so that said panel is disposed adjacent said rear edge and projects upwardly relatively to said upper surface; each said bracket including a lower generally C-shaped mounting part which defines a generally horizontally and forwardly opening channel for accommodating therein a rear edge portion of said worksurface, said C-shaped mounting part having a clamping member movably mounted thereon for effecting clamping engagement of the rear edge portion of the worksurface within said channel; said bracket also including an upright part which is fixed to said mounting part and is cantilevered upwardly above said upper surface, said upright part including a vertically extending support wall defining thereon a back edge which projects vertically upwardly relative to said worksurface in the vicinity of the rear edge thereof; and first attachment parts provided on said support wall in vertically spaced relation along the back edge thereof for engagement with removable fastener means mounted on said panel for fixedly attaching said panel to said brackets so as to position said panel rearwardly of but adjacent said back edge of said support wall and with said panel extending horizontally between said brackets.
