Some of the businesses provided few days in a month for their employee to work from home. I remember in my last few jobs this practice was mentioned as a benefit. Today the businesses had no other choice but to embrace this as a day to day practice at least till the COVID19 threat was over. The month long work from home has provided business with some real time data which shows it works and based on the work that we do majority of the workforce sitting behind the computer to do their job proved it is no different than to work at your own desk and produce the same result expected from your employer. It's time that the employers realize that work from home requires macro management instead of micro. It has to be more result driven on a timely manner. Businesses should realize that working from home actually cuts down their rental and utility bills. All the employees using their own resources - it's a large benefit for businesses. I won't be surprised if majority of businesses decides to continue this practice post coronavirus pandemic. I believe most of us have realized by now that we actually give more time to our work then what we used to give when sitting in the office. We had to commute and then had set time to reach, start, have lunch, meetings and then at a certain time commute back home. Once we left the office it was a psychological shutdown from work - our mind and body would look forward to post work practices. We never realized how this unlocking ourselves regularly healed our body and mind. Now due to lockdown or stay at home practice this clock has been reset and this will be felt after a couple of months as we sit more front of the computer with very restricted movements. Now is the time to start thinking about the investment that you need to start planning for your home office setup. We know that this social distancing and keeping majority of the population to home will help eradicate this pandemic. It will be a natural process to prioritize the workers who need to be physically present will need to start first - those who has been working from home keeping it business as usual will be the last. As I mentioned above - seeing the benefits businesses might make this a norm many of us working behind the computer and producing the same result as working physically in the office. Your obvious investment will start with the reliable Internet connectivity having good bandwidth, computer having good camera, a decent headset for the calls, multi-screens and not to mention all the additionals that will help you to be more productive. For me a printer, whiteboard and place at home where I can isolate myself were the logical choices. Your lighting is also very important. Ensure every hour - you are standing up and taking a couple of minutes break to walk around to get the circulation going. If you are using Google Apps or Office 365 you already have built-in Google Meet or Microsoft Team to carry out the video conferences. But more focused and dedicated conference application like Zoom. Gotomeeting have many more features and provides more stable connectivities over the similar bandwidth. Those who are working from home - you should thank your employer to have such a facility and mindset. Let's show the commitment, support and continue to produce results which will help them to pass this challenging time.
