As reliable internet connections become available and affordable, and virtual meeting applications improve, more and more employees and businesses are turning to a telecommute/work-from-home scenario. While WFH benefits the employee by saving commute time and creating a more relaxed work environment, sometimes it can also leave employees feeling isolated and uncared for. 

Work-from-home gifts for employees can brighten their day, remind them that they are valued, and reestablish the camaraderie. Here are eight ideas to get you started finding gifts for employees working from home.

1.  Noise-Canceling Headphones

Whether they listen to white noise, speed metal, or nothing at all, noise-canceling headphones can provide a productive Do Not Disturb work environment, especially for those with pets or other people in their homes.

2. Soothing Streaming

Give your employees some time to unwind and watch their favorite programs with the gift of streaming services. The entire household may thank you for this one.

3. Trending Technology

Even if your company provides the major hardware and software employees need to get their job done, the latest hardware tech tools can keep them even happier. Devices such as cordless chargers and laptop stands can make their day a little easier. Power strips and solar chargers can be very helpful in areas that have spotty power or a home office that is limited on outlets.

4. Desk Accessories

The organizational items needed to do your job from home most efficiently can cost a pretty penny. Boost employee comfort and convenience with accessories like desk pads, a mousepad with a stylus holder, or an office supply organizer with in/out bins.

5. Power Supplies

A sturdy power strip with built-in surge protector is a good two-in-one gift for employees working from home. Whether their power occasionally flickers or they don’t have enough outlets in their home office, this simple gift can make a big difference.

6. Ergonomics

Many employees had to scramble to set up a productive yet comfortable office setting in their work-from-home environment. An ergonomic adjustable chair is like gold to someone tied to their desk all day.

7. Cleaning Tools

Work-from-home employees don’t usually have the luxury of the cleaning services offered at the office. Gift them a cleaning service. Or, send a cordless handheld desk vacuum, perfect for cleaning those crumbs out of the keyboard.

8. Rave Rewards

Whether you have five employees or 500, one location or 1,000, it is nearly impossible to pick an item that all employees will like. Great news! You don’t have to! These gift ideas and MANY more can be found in one spot.
