It’s crazy to think how a tiny virus has totally transformed the way we work.
Early this year, millions of employees were suddenly told to work from home because of the COVID-19 pandemicĀ and the Circuit Breaker measures implemented to contain the virus.
According to the Ministry of Manpower:
āWorking from home must be theĀ default mode of working (including companies resuming operations in Phases One and Two of Circuit Break). Employees who have been working from home so far must continue to do so, and go to the office only where there is no alternative.ā
It seems like working from home will be the default for the near future.
As it might be a while before a viable COVID-19 vaccine is widely available.
But working from home (WFH) might not be the most conducive for some, because of:
- crying children
- loud construction noise, or
- other distractions that’ll disrupt your usual productivity
If you are looking for a peaceful and private place to tackle your work tasks.
Why not consider WFH?
But instead of working from home… you can work from a hotel instead.
