The 4 basic rules of teleworking to apply in a Coworking
In the field of work, confinement has meant a forced and improvised experiment in what teleworking entails. Until a few months ago, for many workers, teleworking was a wish, and only a wish. In the best cases, it was something to be able to negotiate in order to aspire to an improvement at work, an improvement that had to do with quality of life. Most changes in the workplace, like other social changes, usually occur little by little, gradually; Job improvements are usually small achievements, which are the result of negotiations that extend over time.
However, suddenly, the desire to telework has become a reality, fulfilling in many cases the saying “be careful what you wish for…”. As an exception that confirms the rule regarding social and work changes, and as a consequence of the arrival of the virus that breaks the game board and the decree of the state of alarm, teleworking has emerged in Spain.
And if it usually takes a while to adapt to changes, in this case, and at least for the majority, it was time to improvise. Furthermore, the circumstances have favored the experience of working from home being, to say the least, different from what was expected: extra hours worked, expenses that are the responsibility of the employee, difficulties in disconnecting (digitally and mentally), the challenge of combining childcare work…
Now that remote work seems to be “here to stay,” it is the right time to internalize the 4 rules of remote work, which expert Nicholas Bloom mentions in this interview that we recommend.
1-Space
Reserve a space just for working, even if it is at home: separating spaces is essential to be able to differentiate activities (work and leisure) and areas (work and private and family). Otherwise, we run the risk of going from “working at home” to “living in the office.”
2-Concentration
Having a powerful Wi-Fi connection intended exclusively for work during business hours: although it may seem very obvious, in the same way that in a company it would be a disruption to have interruptions due to the Internet connection, working remotely requires a quality Internet connection that allows carry out the work satisfactorily.
3- Connectivity
Having a powerful Wi-Fi connection intended exclusively for work during business hours: although it may seem very obvious, in the same way that in a company it would be a disruption to have interruptions due to the Internet connection, working remotely requires a quality Internet connection that allows carry out the work satisfactorily.
4- Technology
Have the right equipment: although the best equipment is the one that meets your needs, and those needs depend on the activity, in the medium term having “inferior” equipment than what you need is a waste of time. Along these lines, it is highly recommended to have the appropriate accessories, which are, at a minimum, a mouse, an external keyboard and a large screen
If you have been working for a while, it is very likely that you are already aware of these rules. If teleworking has come into your life without prior notice, and we recommend that you try trying these rules. These tips have worked for us, and we hope that they can also help you so that remote work is as close to what we wanted. In our spaces we have all the necessary comforts, so that you can continue living your life at home and at the same time have a workplace that lives up to your expectations.
