As managers and/or business owners the same duty of care that we have for our team when they are in our physical office space applies when people are at home. So, we remain responsible for creating a healthy and safe work environment for our team, both physically and mentally.

Physically - Make sure your team knows how best to set up their workstation and environment, even if it’s not possible to provide everyone with a whizz-bang chair with 20 different knobs or three monitors. A dedicated and enjoyable workspace can do wonders for your productivity. We’ve put together a modest checklist you can download that your teams can use to assess their work environment and desk set up!

Mentally - To get some tips around how to support your team mentally, check out our blog on remote working here.
