3. Ergonomic Setup

We are at our desks for more than 7 hours a day! Back to back zoom calls, conference calls and copious amounts of emails to answer. So we want to make sure the setup is correct and doesn’t leave us with a creaky neck or a twisted back…This is not an area you want to cut corners on, or it will definitely impact your ability to work effectively. Check out this guide on how to properly set up your work from home experience.

• Set up your desktop unit at a reasonable distance to your face
• Invest in a proper computer chair that could help you sit in a neutral pelvic position
• Use a laptop stand or monitor risers 
• Ergonomic chair cushion to support your back while sitting
• Mouse designed ergonomically to fit in your desktop table and the size of your hand
• Make sure your table has a compartment for your keyboard
• You may also purchase an adjustable desktop table so may also work while standing

Make your workspace conducive for work and convenient for your health too. Remember, prevention is better than cure.

4. Exercise and 

Breathe

It’s important to detox and relax your mind regularly while working from home. It’s easy to get overwhelmed and not be able to switch off. Therefore, make sure to have an outlet where you can unwind and recharge. 

Here are just a few examples: Short power walks, singing to your favourite songs, skipping, dancing like nobody’s watching or just s

imple stretches. Exercising will help your blood circulate properly and keep your body working optimally. 

No matter how busy we get at work, even in a work from home set up, always keep in mind that the most important tool is your own body.

5. Digital Signature And Document Templates

We recommend Docusign or

 Adobe Sign for your digital signature. Since the office industry has temporarily changed because of the pandemic, a digital signature is very essential. Document templates are also a must-have such as contract, job order, invitation letter, acceptance form, etc. Being digitally ready doesn’t only mean having the devices you need but also having your work essentials saved digitally. Having a digital signature and document templates ready can make your work more effective and efficient. 

Now, do you have all these set up for your work from home experience or for your staff? If not, better invest in the essential devices and equipment for your work-from-home setup. Keep in mind that this kind of investment is for the long term. Customize your workspace at home, maximize your quality of work!
