Today, in this blog, we will be sharing tips on how to lower the struggle while remote working. Below are 5 tips to follow while working from home:

  • Maintain work-life

Upholding good work-life balance and a dedicated working desk/ place in your house are two important aspects in winning work from home activity. Scheduling your work hours and tasks can help you finish tasks in decided time and have personal space too.

Also, over working can challenge you mentally and therefore working from home becomes insane.

Solutions for such concern are already available. An automated timesheet management software will let your employees feed/ submit their work personally through self-service portal.

Time tracking solution is another way to keep a track of their worked hours daily.

  • Use HRMS solution

One for HR department – during lockdowns like March 2020, it becomes a necessity for the HR department to look for ways to keep payroll, attendance management, etc. running without losing the track. Dedicated HRMS solution like Pocket HRMS provides all-in-one feature pack, which makes remote workforce management easier.

  • Take breaks

Remote workers at home often forget to take breaks in their work. Break doesn’t only mean to pick-up your phone and have a quick chat with friends or listed to your favourite music at the desk itself. Here, break means physically. Get up and walk a little in your house or go prepare juice for yourself. This will make you walk a little and do a little physical activity.

Taking short break after every 90 minutes is mandatory in such period i.e. quarantine!

  • Eat healthy. Avoid junk

This tip is specially curated for current situation (Coronavirus lockdown). The situation like now demands staying 24/7 at home. At such times, there is a high percentage of chance that you may gain weight or become physically bulky or unhealthy.
