Help Out at Home Help out at HomeOrganisations can really help their remote and home workers by paying attention to the bottle necks in their digital connections.Anyone working or learning from home needs all of the following.A good internet connection. I mean really good. Think Virgin business media vroom 500 Mbps. At the very least virgin essential business internet 100Mbps. End to end fibre is always going to be best.Excellent wifi. A good whole home mesh network. This will ensure other members of the household don’t hog the bandwidth.An up to date, big screen laptop. Think minimum 17 inch.A good webcam setup. This is essential if they are working with a desktop PC. Think AVerMedia Live Streamer CAM 513, 4K Ultra HD - USB 3.0.A headset and microphone. This is the cheapest, most effective method of enhancing the zoom/teams experience.An led ring light system. Also quiet cheap and effective.A quiet, comfortable workspace not shared with other household members. Not a bedroom or sofa.This may sound like a lot, but if you supply your employees with this level of support and connectivity, you will increase their levels of productivity, wellbeing and loyalty by an amount well in excess of the cost.At Impact Factory we have spent thousands on upgrading our equipment and training rooms in order to supply the very best remote learning experience.The only bit we have no control over is the home/remote bottleneck.That’s up to you.
