Create a space just for work and ask for the right equipment

Not everyone is lucky enough to have a desk at home, let alone a separate room where they can work undisturbed. If possible, a solid strategy is to create a dedicated space for working. This could simply be at the kitchen or dining room table. Having an area that is used only for work means that when the working day ends, the rest of the house does not feel like the office.

It’s often the case that working from home can exacerbate back conditions, especially if you’re hunched over a laptop and using a chair not designed for long hours at a computer. Ask your employer if they are able to provide proper equipment, such as an ergonomic chair and a monitor. This will go some way to helping you create a proper workstation and cut down on the physical side effects of working from home.
