Staying productive: Working at home

Duration: 27 minutes

Overview: This course is about how to stay productive while working from home under flexible working arrangements. 

• We review how to create a productive, and safe, home workspace.
• We then look at ideas to keep you working effectively in a home workspace.
• Finally, we examine some of the top challenges and concerns about working at home and how to overcome them and stay focused and relaxed in your home workspace to enhance productivity.

Why is this course important? Working at home can be a fantastic opportunity for both the employee and their organisation, but it can also present some risks and hurdles. Staying focused and productive in the environment you normally relax and live in can be challenging. While you may be free of many distractions from your colleagues and organisation, there are other distractions awaiting you at home. Having a strategy to stay productive at home can help you enjoy all the benefits of working at home, while delivering as much (or even more) productivity.

Suitable for: Any employee who works at home or will be required to work at home for an extended period.
