Working remotely

It should be comfortable and follow your preferences; you’ll spend the most of your time there.

Figure out your daily routine for getting work done, and bring yourself up into work-mood.
Develop your "starting day" routine. Some people like to do the same things they do when going to office, like shaving, applying make-up, or wearing normal office clothes.
Schedule small breaks to drink coffee/tea or to look outside your window. That will be good for your mental and physical health.
Don’t forget to exercise. This could be as minimal as go for a walk outside.
Also develop an "ending day" routine. Create a set of actions that signals the end of the workday and stay out of the computer, at least for some time.

Avoid distractions like TV or other devices that can remove your focus.
Don’t do normal domestic work, like laundry, cleaning, etc.
Set rules with the people that live with you during work-hours (family, kids, friends), like not entering the room and not doing any distracting noises.
During meetings, close room door and reduce the possible noise from pet animals. Also, use mute when not talking.

Set your computer to the same timezone as Switzerland (VSHN Main Office.)

In VSHN, we allow employees to extend their hybrid working environment to occasionally work abroad while remaining a resident in Switzerland. However, the following guidelines must be considered when doing so:

These employees must check with their team regarding what customers they work with who have terms not allowing their data to leave Switzerland in the SLA agreements.

Please note:

Feel comfortable to request for help. Don’t spend too much time trying to figure out something that can be done with the help of others.

Usually time flies working remotely, and when you look to the clock you have done more that expected. Set a time when to "stop working." Count all hours and be strict with them.
