This eLearning course is designed to help employees work safely, securely and effectively from home. Remote and hybrid working are now a normal part of professional life, and they bring a distinct set of considerations that differ from working in a traditional office.
The course begins by looking at routine, helping learners structure their day, set boundaries between work and home life, and maintain productivity and focus. It then addresses mental health and wellbeing, recognising that isolation, blurred boundaries and a lack of connection can all affect those who work from home, and offering practical strategies to stay well.
Learners are guided through their health and safety responsibilities when working at home, including setting up a suitable workspace, avoiding hazards, and the importance of reporting issues. The course covers how the usual duty of care applies even outside the office.
Finally, the training addresses the heightened cyber and information security risks associated with remote working, including securing home networks, using devices safely, avoiding phishing, and handling confidential information appropriately. Upon completion, learners will be equipped to work from home in a way that protects their wellbeing, their safety, and their organisation's information.
