As home-working becomes more the norm and less the exception, employees are having to find ways to maintain productivity without the strict discipline of an office environment.

In a home-office environment, by definition, there is no structure.

You need to be able to draw physical divisions between what\u2019s considered \u2018home\u2019 space and \u2018work\u2019 space. Ideally, set up a desk in a different, quiet part of the house where you\u2019re least likely to get distracted.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. <strong>Use technology to stay connected and work on team tasks<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The vast majority of jobs involve at least some integration with other staff members or departments \u2013 particularly when you\u2019re working as a team on tasks. Your employer should have already invested in technologies to make this possible but, if they haven\u2019t, talk to them about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proofpoint.com\/us\/blog\/zero-trust-network-access\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">installing a Zero Trust network<\/a> to allow you to work productively in the cloud.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. <strong>Take regular breaks<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Breaks are good for you \u2013 both physically and mentally. Indeed, if you sit at a desk, you should take a one-minute break per hour to stand and stretch. Check your clock frequently and take regular breaks. Also, make sure you stop for lunch \u2013 and take 15 minutes to yourself every couple of hours.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. <strong>Minimize distractions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/348429\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"350\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/Popular-Time-Blocking-or-Time-Management-Techniques-You-Can-Use-While-Working-Remotely.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38174 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 700px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 700\/350;\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Popular Time-Blocking or Time-Management Techniques You Can Use While Working Remotely<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Social media, TV, errant websites, etc. \u2013 they\u2019re all such easy distractions. Before you know it, boom, three hours of your day have gone already. Be aware of how much time you spend on websites and social media and limit it accordingly. As a general rule of thumb, if you wouldn\u2019t do it in the office, you probably shouldn\u2019t be doing it at home either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. <strong>Work during your most productive hours<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>People are all different.
