Working from Home – Checklist

About this course

These days, many employees work from home or remotely rather than in a traditional office setting.

While this flexibility often offers a better work-life balance, it also presents risks related to ensuring a safe, secure and ergonomic work environment.

This course provides practical guidance to help remote workers identify hazards, maintain safe work practices and create a productive home workspace.

What the course covers

• Work area
• Security
• Electrical equipment
• Storage and housekeeping
• Physical demands
• Work practices
• Other factors
• Work surface
• Using a laptop

• Setting up your peripherals

What people can do afterwards

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

• Understand the characteristics of a safe and effective work area.
• Maintain a secure remote working environment.
• Apply safe practices when using electrical equipment.
• Implement effective storage and housekeeping measures.
• Recognise and manage physical demands associated with remote work.
• Apply ergonomic principles and good work practices when working from home.

How it is delivered

• Structured learning Designed for learners who are new to the topic or want a comprehensive overview. The course explores the subject in detail and typically takes 35–40 minutes to complete.

Two ways to run it

• Your policies, your scenarios

  We rebuild “Working from Home – Checklist” around how your organisation actually works, so the training changes behaviour instead of recording completions.

  Build a custom version

• Ready to run as it is

  Deploy the course off the shelf, with light branding if you want it. Delivered with our partner Safetrac, who will contact you directly.

  Deploy off the shelf

Either way, you can run it through our compliance platform or take it as a SCORM package for the LMS you already have.

What it costs

Off-the-shelf pricing starts at $4,000 a year for up to ten courses with your logo and colours applied, rising with how much you want changed. The tiers are the same across the catalogue, so they are set out once on the pricing page rather than repeated on all 101 courses.

If what you actually need is your own scenarios and your own policies rather than a reskin, that is a custom build, and it is the work Hungry Minds does.
