Home Working Policy and Documents
These documents are designed for employers putting home working arrangements in place or reviewing existing arrangements.
They help employers deal with the practical, contractual, and compliance issues that arise where an employee works from home on a full-time or part-time basis.
Home Working Agreements and Policies
Use this collection where there is, or will be, a formal home working arrangement.
It includes the core documents needed to set the arrangement up properly, confirm the terms that apply, and support home working as an ongoing working practice.
Managing Day-to-Day Home Working Issues
Home working can work well for both employer and employee, but it needs a clear framework.
Employers will usually need to address matters such as:
- how contact will be maintained;
- reporting and supervision arrangements;
- attendance at the office for meetings or training; and
- who is responsible for equipment and furniture.
Health and Safety, Security, and Data Protection
Home working also raises important compliance issues. Employers need to consider insurance, security, and data protection, and should ensure that health and safety obligations are addressed in the same way as for employees working on the employer’s premises.
A suitable risk assessment should be carried out before a home working arrangement begins and reviewed regularly.
