How To Be Productive

60% of employees have started remote work after the coronavirus pandemic hit Japan. According to a survey by the Japan Productivity Center in May, no less than 60% of employees think their productivity reduced in remote working. The main reasons are difficulty in concentrating on work and lacking opportunities to communicate with co-workers. Regarding these problems, I believe there are two ways to keep employees’ productivity.

First, the schedule should be decided before your shift starts. If so, they can focus on the work. In addition, if sharing the schedule with people at work is completed in the morning, it can be useful information and the boss does not need to check employees’ attendance every time. Besides, if employees inform their family of their schedule, children might be able to wait for them to play together instead of disturbing them. Scheduling is effective to keep people productive in remote work.

Second, making time for themselves is needed. Being stuck at home makes it hard for people to refresh themselves, which reduces their motivation and productivity. Some reports show that having time with their children or enjoying their hobby is useful to improve their concentration and  productivity. Over the long haul, these can be helpful to keep them healthy, which is the important factor for people to be productive.

More than 80% of employees want to keep remote working. It is time that people found out the solution to keep their productivity and made their working environments better by themselves.
