With the current circumstances arising with the Coronavirus and social distancing, many people are having to resort to working from home. Although there are benefits to working remotely this shift can be very difficult for some employees to get used to, especially those who have never had to work from home before.
In order to successfully perform your work from home you have to make sure that you are prepared and organized when addressing the following:
- Managing your time/work hours.
- Communicating with coworkers, partners, clients.
- Staying productive.
Performing your work from home is doable but that may not be the case for everyone. Depending on the type of work you do and the equipment/supplies you depend on to conduct your work, working remotely may not be the best option for you.
The lack of office supplies is also a factor that can halt the productivity of working remotely. Offices typically have printers, scanners, fax machines, WiFi, etc. that are necessities for people to do their work.
Working from home may also mean having to work through distractions. If you are working from home that means you also have to deal with the at home distractions that you normally wouldn’t encounter. Family, kids, tv, pets, and the tempting inclination to just stay in bed all day are all factors that can divert you from performing your work. Unless you have a private workspace at home, renting a private, secluded short term office space may be a good solution for you at this point in time.
It may not be ideal right now to sign up for a long-term office rental lease but looking into a short term private office for rent could be something worth your while. For example, Prime Executive Offices offers hourly rooms for rent, daily rooms for rent and other flexible private office rental options so you can continue to work in a private workspace with no long term commitment. Standard office equipment and amenities are also available for you onsite to help you continue running your business. So instead of automatically steering toward remote work it may be good to consider renting out a temporary private office to ensure your comfort and productivity when working during this time of uncertainty.
