Productive and Efficient Working from Home
- Geeta Singh
Work from Home

Work from Home is fast becoming a new normal. Has it affected efficiency and quality the work deserves? Are we missing the office environ? Have the work schedules we are so used to gone topsy turvy? Let's take a look at some of the measures that you can take to boost your productivity while working from home to deliver your best.

1. Follow the clock

Just because you're working from home doesn't mean you don't need to maintain a proper work-life balance. Create a schedule and follow it. By defining your working hours and knowing when to sign off, you'll be able to separate personal from professional and deliver efficiently.

2. Set clear ground rules with the people who you share your living space with

You need to explain to your housemates that the office hours are for office only. Just because you are at home doesn't mean you can help out with household chores during your working hours. If you have children, you need to sit them down and explain to them what they can and cannot do during your working hours. Also, try to find a quiet corner in your house to set up your workstation. Busy areas such as living rooms do not translate into good working spaces.

3. Breaks are important
