HOME WORKING POLICY

WHEN TO USE THIS DOCUMENT

 This policy sets out the way in which an organisation deals with employees working from home.

 All of our policies combine professional legal and personnel / HR knowledge with practical experience in business to provide an easy to use policy which meets with legal responsibilities and obligations.

 A written policy like this one helps employees to understand the employer’s policy and also explains the procedures to be followed. It also explains the rights and responsibilities of both the employer and the employee. If properly followed, a policy will also help ensure that the employer complies with all their legal duties and obligations whilst protecting employees.

 This policy contains careful explanations of the agreed criteria for working at home and how requests are dealt with as well as allowing an employer to outline the tasks which are unsuitable for working at home.
