Home Office and Mobile Working

Working from home has gained enormous impor­tance during the Covid-19 pandemic, and it is anti­cipated that a more flexible work­place will also shape the future world of work.

The expansion of the home office and mobile working in the pan­demic has raised numerous legal issues that have yet to be resolved; can the employer unila­terally order working from home, or can employees them­selves demand mobile working? What obli­gations does the employer have to equip the home office? Do the occupa­tional health and safety regula­tions apply at home? How is the employee’s work perfor­mance supervised at home? At what point does statu­tory accident insurance apply in the event of acci­dents in the home workplace?

Our presentation on 28 September 2021 offered an over­view of specific prob­lems and initial approaches to solu­tions. After the presentation participants had the oppor­tunity to engage in a Q&A session.
