The work from home setup has been a big adjustment for all employees. For those working remotely for regulated sectors, they still have to remain compliant, so call monitoring and being able to capture voice calls still remains atop their priorities. However, trying to remain productive and efficient during this lockdown has become a challenging task. One of the common problems that employees face during this setup is cabin fever or the feeling of stress that comes from being isolated.
To cope with this and other stressful problems, employees can be productive by doing these simple things.
First of all, keep yourself motivated during work hours. You can listen to some uplifting and upbeat music or watch a motivational film to get you going. Another thing you can do to trick your mind is to dress appropriately for the job even if you are just at home. It may be tempting just to wear house clothes, but doing this will definitely boost your productivity.
Try to keep in touch with friends, loved ones, and the local community. During this lockdown, the feeling of isolation can lead to increased stress, so communicating and socializing with the people around you can surely help. Lastly, try to keep distractions to a minimum when working. Finding a quiet place instead of a crowded one can give you peace of mind and allow you to focus on your tasks for the day.
