Significado
Working remotely from one's residence.
Contexto cultural
The shift to WFH has allowed many people to move back to their hometowns (like Satara, Sangli, or Ratnagiri) while keeping their high-paying jobs in Mumbai or Pune. In Hinjewadi and Magarpatta (IT hubs), 'घरून काम करणे' is often associated with avoiding the notorious traffic jams of Pune. In Marathi culture, working from home often means balancing professional calls with family tea time. It's common to hear a pressure cooker whistle in the background of a Marathi conference call! During festivals like Ganesh Chaturthi, 'घरून काम करणे' allows employees to participate in rituals without taking a full day off.
Use '-un' for location

Avoid 'Gharat'
Saying 'Gharat kaam' (Work in the house) sounds like you are doing repairs or cleaning.
