The coronavirus breakdown in the Wuhan region of China was so rapid that it affected Italy severely. The country is facing a complete lockdown condition right now after several death cases reported due to coronavirus or we also call it Covid- 19. Considering the current condition, the entire world is affected by the global pandemic.
All the industries and businesses are suffering due to this complete lockdown. But as they say, the show must go on. It is necessary for us to take all the preventive measures and hence the corporate world has gracefully adopted the ‘Work from home’ culture for the safety of their valuable employees.
At Mediology, we all believe in productivity with safety. To ensure that none of the employees is affected with the Covid- 19, we have made the Work from Home facility available and mandatory for our employees.

As work from home is the new trend during this situation of emergency, here are some etiquettes that employees should follow to ensure that their productivity isn’t affected even if the workspace changes.
Take a look!
New premises give new opportunities:
Your workspace is a place where you spend 9 hours of your day. 9 productive hours! A sudden shift in the workspace can be a challenge. But let’s remember that you will have complete privacy to be creative and focus without any distractions. Start your day as you aren’t working from home but as you do it when you go for work. Get up, have your cup of coffee, bathe and dress up.
Find a comfortable space at your house and that’s your office for the upcoming days. Let’s treat it like a real job. Having a proper home office is the key to productivity.
Contact is contagious but contact is the key:
We all work in teams and of course, the work for teammates is correlated. As we all have to quarantine ourselves in this time, we must understand that physical contact can be dangerous but we need to keep the communication going. You might just need to have some important discussion with your client or a quick meeting with your teammates. You never know!
It’s the right time to thank Technology that keeps you connected and you can work efficiently. We at Mediology ensure that we don’t need to compromise with the productivity. Even if multiple companies provide laptops to their employees, desktops aren’t out of trend too. We have provided laptops to all the employees and we make the most of Remote Desktop Apps like AnyDesk, TeamViewer and Google Desktop. For all the support queries and communication with the clients, the entire support team will be available on calls and emails.
It’s not self-isolation, it’s a productive day
We all know that man is a social animal but going anti-social is the need of the hour. Even if you are connected with your colleagues and managers to work, you might feel isolated at times. Always remember that you have to get acquainted with this environment for a while. Start your day with a scrum call with your team and discuss the agenda with your team. Allocate specific time for every task and try to finish it within time. At the end of the day, have a call with your team to discuss the work done for the day. Believe in yourself. You will spend a productive time!
Take breaks. Refreshments are necessary
Working without any social interaction can be a difficult task. Even when we all are working at office, we have lunch in groups and go for tea breaks together to freshen up the mind. This won’t be possible for your home office but make sure that you eat healthy and have your tea whenever you need. Also, it’s good to have a fixed time for taking breaks that won’t affect your productivity or your availability whenever your teammates need you.
Inform immediately
Be responsible and avoid going out and advise the same to your friends and family members. The risks of getting affected will be low when you quarantine yourselves, precautions and taking proper care is still necessary. However, if you ever feel that your health isn’t well and think that your body is showing the possible symptoms, the first thing to do is visit the doctor and go for a medical checkup. In case you fall sick, you can inform the manager and submit the Medical report stating ‘Fit to Work’ to resume at work.
At the end, your work will help you a lot in staying sane in this time. Keep yourself busy and work efficiently because at times you may get worried with all the news reports coming. Stay motivated and keep your teammates motivated too. Watch a movie in your free time or maybe read a book! Always remember, it is necessary to develop a hobby. You are doing this for a better tomorrow for yourself!
Stay Safe! Stay Healthy!
