5 Ways to Remain Productive through Quarantine

How to remain Productive Through Quarantine

Now we all are somehow frustrated regarding the ongoing situation, the lockdown, the work from home, and no respite in vision from the grinding routine. Even though having the best possible environment in the form of a family we still are lacking in giving our best for the position. 

The greatest issue that every team has faced over the last few months even though the remote working phenomenon has taken over the world and is literally the most profitable move for businesses worldwide cutting in on the office expense and all. However after a few weeks of the boom; the productivity levels have indeed been negative. 

The productivity charts have gone drastically bad. There seems like nothing can help you get those graphs up and your work seamless, now we are not going to say that the Staff Timer App magically makes everything better we are just going to tell you how having this app has helped the productivity stay constant, or better yet how about I tell you how we do things the “Staff Timer App” way?

Informed Tasks

The best gift you can give your employee is not a raise, which by the way is a very good gift, in the case of work is to let him or her know the targets or goals for the day, do not let him or her wander about in the abyss of countless possibilities and leave them on their own.

This not only hurts productivity but also hurts the organization and if you are working remotely it is total time wastage. We make sure our employees our well-aware of their duties and tasks at the start of the day.

Effective Communication

Now, this here is the core of many solutions to your remote teams. Communication is the key to a relationship. Remember your employee is dependent upon you for feedback and report checks. So make sure you get to their query first and after that indulge in other tasks.

Employees’ productivity demands a lot upon the feedback, not the tweaks but proper feedback that tells them their weaknesses and their strengths so they can be an effective part of the organization.

Our seniors make sure that the employees get the best feedback for their work without any biases so they can ace their work and achieve the daily targets efficiently. 

Give them Time

No good has ever come from rushing to a conclusion we all agree, similar is the case with a task once you have given a task to an employee, understand that not everyone knows everything, so for them to do a task it requires time.

They are already under pressure to nail a task, so be patient with them. We understand this issue and that is why time tracking is a great option. You are up to date with the progress of a great little trick we employ at Staff Timer. 

Respect the Breaks

Yes, people read the heading; respect the break. Make sure to respect the breaks. When our employees are on break for lunch or running any other errands. We understand that not to disturb them or bug them constantly asking them over and over again for the tasks assigned to them.

Breaks are important, they help deal with burnout and essential for mental health. Too much of anything is dangerous, and too much screen time is essentially bad. So letting them relax will freshen up the approach and a sudden burst of energy is good for overall productivity. 

Work only in Working Hours

Condone overtime at all cost, condemn it and avoid it. Overtimes are a hassle and a killer of productivity so try and finish work within hours, anything done over time will reflect hastiness and blunt edges.

The simple reason for this is that the human mind can only function at full capacity for 8-10 hours after that it requires rest and we ourselves become tired so the work done after working hours is not as polished as the work done in time.  

So here are our exclusive 5 pointers that keep Staff Timer fresh and productive. We always wake up with new dreams and we have a team that can reach those goals and fulfills those dreams.

All because of these little things we take care of and not to mention the Staff Timer Aap itself which always keeps us ahead of the curve.
