If you're being monitored and are required to work from home, here's how to productively work from home.

Make sure your employer knows the following:

1. Make sure that the environment around your desk is quiet enough so that are no distractions coming through the walls or ceiling above your head (or whatever other sound-producing devices may be around).

2. Your phone must be on silent or vibrate (if it isn't, use headphones)

3. You may not use any other devices (e.g., computers, monitors) except for when you are checking email/other notifications that pop up on your phone. You can also use this time to write down any ideas and thoughts that come naturally without distractions!

4. If you need coffee or food during the day, make sure those items are kept in an easily accessible location. Your employer will have guidelines on how much time you should spend eating/drinking outside of working hours but this is something that is entirely up to their discretion; if they feel like they need more than that allotted time frame then they can ask you to go ahead and eat/drink during off hours or even require you to eat/drink at home altogether!
