Miss Rona dealt us a few heavy blows, but we also developed a new outlook on life. This included working from home. You either love it or hate it. It's great waking up five minutes before clocking in, sitting with your laptop on the couch - until your dog starts running and barking all around you. Working from home can take its toll on our mental health too (hello, cabin fever), but it also has its wonders. Let's put this issue to bed (literally and figuratively) and figure out this new way of working.
1 THE UPSIDE
Many of us are more productive behind our desks when there are fewer distractions. But working from your bedahem, working from home - also has its perks:
• Location independence. Working from home allows us the comfort of working wherever, whenever. This is helpful for those from small towns outside of the CBD, those travelling and for those simply seeking more digitally supported dynamics. You can pick up your work in a cafe or any other space when your home office is feeling a little too repetitive.
• Cutting down on commuting. Cutting out the frustration of inching in first gear through traffic helps employees feel more energised for the work day ahead.
• Saving costs ... and the planet. WFH means less travel, which means less money
spent, which also means less carbon emissions. It saves money in a tough economic climate and brings joy to using a space that is your own and crafted for you.
