7.03 Functioning Home Office

Telecommuters people who work from their homes using computers, modems, fax machines, teleconferencing equipment

Modems technological advancement that allow several people within a home to use Computers to send and receive information within seconds and moments

Wireless technology: a method of sending signals over the airwaves rather than through wires or cables. Allows computers/laptops to be used in any room of the house or outside the home (in businesses/restaurants) Wi-Fi: uses a narrow range of low frequency, low energy radio waves.

Surge protectors protects equipment from damage due to power surges. Filters out sudden increases in power created by the local power company or a storm. For best protection use a central unit that protects the whole home at once. Has its own circuit breaker and should be placed close to the panel box. Can be placed in new or older homes.

Ergonomics an applied science concerned with designing and arranging things so they are safe, comfortable, and efficient for people to use. This is an environment that facilitates frequent changes in body positions and avoids eye-straining glares

Guidelines for planning home offices: Arrange the work area into L or U shape. Place a swivel chair in the middle so that turning or rolling slightly, everything is in reach When seated, the computer, telephone, and file storage should be within easy reach Plan for plenty of work surface. A desk should be 24” deep and 36” wide Use vertical space (tall bookcases), rolling filing cabinets, corner bookcases Plan for enough storage and extra storage for the future Use storage wisely by storing similar items together. Put frequently used items close for handiness

Location of home office depends on the type of work there and the availability of space. Home offices range from a corner of the family room to a whole room. Make sure there is adequate work area and filing area. A separate entrance is optimal but any room can be used. The office should be located AWAY from the main part of the house. Be mindful of the zones in the home. Check local business zoning laws to see if business can be conducted in the home if clients will be visiting
