If you’re like most Americans, you have likely been spending these past few months in quarantine working from home. While many states are starting to ease restrictions, most businesses are not in a hurry to bring their employees back to the office. This means, most of us will be working from home the remainder of the year.
Working from home can be a challenge, but if you set up the right home office, it can be like you never left your place of business in the first place. Here is how:
Get ergonomic office furniture
The idea of doing your work on your couch or in your bed sounds nice, but it is not ideal. To stay productive and organized, you need to have the appropriate office furniture at your disposal. A desk, chair, keyboard, etc. can make a world of difference while working from home! However, not just any equipment will do. Be sure to find ergonomic office furniture to promote better health and productivity.
Let in the sun
You cannot do your work in the dark. While artificial light will help you see, it is not the same as natural light. Letting sunlight into your work area can boost your mood and prevent your internal clock from going haywire. Workers who cannot see the sun often find themselves dealing with a range of problems, including sleep difficulties, weight gain, depression, and poor eyesight.
Set up your phone
Email, Skype, Google Voice, and/or chat programs with clients and coworkers can only go so far. You will likely still need a phone at one time or another. A VoIP phone system contains customized remote and home office settings, allowing you the freedom to take your business anywhere!
At Vaspian, we provide remote office features that can help your business stay connected while everyone works from home. Give us a call at 1-855-827-7426 to learn more!
