QUICK IDEAS FOR YOUR HOME OFFICE
Are you working remotely because of the current pandemic? If you will be working from home on a regular basis, consider dedicating an area of your home as a more permanent workspace.
The good news: you don’t need an entire room to create a functional home office. As long as you have internet and a good Wi-Fi connection, adapting a corner of your living room, dining room, or a spare bedroom works well.
If you primarily use a laptop, you can use a compact workspace such as a small table, or one end of your kitchen table. But if you need a large monitor or desktop system, you’ll need a larger desk or table. Be sure to include a writing space if you take a lot of notes.
Here are a few other must-haves to create a comfortable, ergonomic space:
· A proper office chair with good back support.
· Good light sources. Both overhead lighting and a desk lamp are essential.
· Wireless headphones allow you to get up and walk around while on the phone or listening to a webinar.
· A laptop stand or riser so that your screen is at the correct height to avoid neck strain.
· A charging station for your phone and other devices.
