Advantages
People who work from home generally enjoy some of the following benefits:
- Higher work morale – shows that your employer trusts you
- Flexibility – those with parental responsibility can juggle commitments such as childcare
- Higher levels of productivity – you can work ‘smarter’ by not having long commutes to work
- Cost savings – no travelling
Things to consider
- Discipline and Self-Motivation. Working from home can be a very isolating experience. If you are someone who enjoys and thrives from a busy work environment then working at home may be too lonely. Some people can and some people cannot concentrate without someone ‘watching over’ them. It is important to be honest with yourself about your ability as it can be all too easy to become distracted.
- Space. Working from home requires you to set up a ‘home office’. Depending upon the type of work you undertake, a basic home office will include a PC or laptop, Internet connection (usually broadband), a telephone and a fax machine. When setting up a home office, it is important to ensure that you put your ‘office’ somewhere that is conducive to work. It is also important to separate your work life from your home life so the location in the house is important.
- Family and friends. Working from home creates the illusion that you are always available for a chat, going for lunch etc. In order to make the most from working at home it is important to be strict about your working hours.
- Staying in touch. A daily phone call or a weekly meeting at the office will help you to stay involved and ensure that you are not forgotten about. Meeting up for social events with colleagues will help you to maintain your relationships with people and keep you informed on office politics.
Working from home can bring great benefits such as flexibility, productivity and cost savings. By putting into place strict systems and procedures when working from home you can overcome some of the drawbacks and enjoy the benefits.
