Stay home, work safe

Apart from key workers, the government has restricted people from leaving their homes other than to buy essentials. It is hoped that keeping people further apart from each other it will reduce the chance of group spread. As well as removing the opportunity for the virus to be caught during a commute or in office spaces. For those who find themselves at home for an extended period of time, this is the best way to maximise productivity, maintain good physical and mental health when working from home:

• Distinguish between work and home mode
• Be realistic about what you can achieve
• Work in short bursts
• Don’t forget to take breaks
• Manage distractions
• Be sociable by connecting with friends, family and colleagues through social media

Staying indoors shouldn't mean complete isolation from the outside world. The world has been blessed with the advancement of technology and this is the best time to use that advantage. Lack of physical communication can be compensated with virtual connections and conversations.
