Les Roberts, Content Manager at Bionic provided some additional guidance on how workers can work more productively at home:

“Adding some structure to your day can help eliminate certain distractions, so try to get into a routine of regular work and frequent breaks.

The Pomodoro Technique, for instance, means working solidly for 25 minutes then taking a break for five. Even if you have your head buried deep into a project, this short break every 25 minutes can really help to clear your mind, especially if you use it to get away from your screens by going outside, dipping into a newspaper or magazine, or getting one chapter of a book read.”
