Working From Home? 10 Ways To Create a Productive Workspace

No one could have predicted how the global pandemic changed our everyday lives. The new normal is wearing masks in public spaces, maintaining social distance and working from home. And with the new Covid strain showing up in various European countries, there is no certainty when the pandemic will come to an end.  

Are you going to be working remotely in the foreseeable future? It’s time to revamp your makeshift workspace into a more permanent and comfortable setting. Ideally, your workspace should enhance your productivity by eliminating any discomfort. 

  1. Bedroom Off-Limits

Working in your bedroom once in a while is not a concern. But if you are looking for a productive workspace, your bedroom should be off-limits. This is a place of rest and relaxation. Why disrupt that with work stress?

Find another room in your house to set up your workstation. If you can’t use any other room, then at least avoid working in bed.

  1. Declutter & Storage

A messy workspace is always going to be inconvenient and distracting. Starting by decluttering and organizing the space. One of the easiest ways to keep your workspace tidy is getting adequate storage. 

  1. Get an Adjustable Desk

Slouching over a desk is a common cause of back and neck strain. Instead of working on a low coffee table, buy an adjustable desk that you can raise or lower according to your needs. You can also use it as a standing desk if you’re tired of sitting down. 

Check out height-adjustable desks and buy one that fits your requirements. 

  1. Invest in a High-Quality Chair

A kitchen stool or sofa might be fine if you have to work for a couple of hours but not longer. Having the right chair is indispensable for an ergonomic home office. An office chair with proper back support should be on the top of your list. The last thing you want is chronic back and neck pain. 

  1. Place Monitor at Eye-Level

It is necessary to be mindful of where the monitor placed on your desk. It should be directly in front of you, not to the side. You should be able to see the monitor without craning, bending or twisting your neck. Also, place your keyboard, mouse and other accessories close by. 

  1. Get Laptop Stand

When sitting in front of a computer for long periods of time, a desktop is a much better option. However, if you are working on a laptop, buy the necessary accessories to prevent eye and neck strain.

A laptop stand is an extremely useful yet inexpensive way to make your work set up comfortable. 

  1. Find Natural Light

If possible, it is a good idea to choose a spot that gets plenty of natural light. Sunlight has shown to elevate mood as well as boost productivity. 

  1. Set Up a Coffee Station

Working from home can make it difficult to create a distinction between personal and professional life. Do you often get caught up in work and forget to take breaks? 

Not taking breaks can be detrimental to your productivity in the long run. Set up a coffee station in your kitchen and remind yourself to get up to get coffee or snacks. 

  1. Use Blue-Light Glasses

We all know staring at a screen is not healthy but there is no way around it if that’s your job. Wear blue-light glasses to minimize fatigue and other harmful effects of screens. 

  1. Support Your Feet

Your feet shouldn’t dangle when you’re sitting down. If they are, get a couple of books or a box to properly support your feet.  

The Bottom Line

Following the aforementioned simple tips will significantly improve your workspace. Making ergonomic adjustments to your home office is essential to avoid fatigue and boost productivity.
