Permanently Remote? Moving Your Office into Your Home

June 22, 2021

Has your company decided to move its workforce into a permanent remote situation? Or maybe you've jumped at their offer of working remotely from now on. In either case, you'll need something more than a laptop on the dining room table. Working remotely full-time is serious business and requires an equally serious office space! 

Working Remotely Is Here to Stay

If you were working in an office or cubicle before 2020, get ready to make some changes! According to FlexJobs, approximately 80% of companies will continue offering their employees the chance to work from home at least part of the time.

The research and advisory firm Gartner surveyed a group of business professionals. That survey showed that 47% of the companies plan to offer employees the opportunity for full-time remote work. Other plans include flex days (43%) or flex hours (42%).

Setting Up Your Home Office

First, choose a room or space in a quiet location with a strong Wi-Fi signal. Then set up your new office with everything you'll need. These home office essentials will probably include:

  • Great lighting
  • Desk & comfortable chair
  • Desktop computer or laptop
  • High-quality monitor 
  • Printer with scan and fax functions
  • Filing system
  • Wastebasket
  • Paper shredder
  • Fire-proof safe
