Course Overview

Homeworking is a growing trend and the percentage of the work force that now work from home has increased significantly in the last decade. With the home becoming the workplace, both employer and employee responsibilities under Health and Safety legislation are now applicable to the homeworker's home. Additionally, homeworkers are expected to comply with all relevant workplace policies and procedures as they would when working in the employer's workplace. To ensure the successful management of homeworking, it is crucial that arrangements are clear and agreed in advance and a consistency of approach is understood by managers and employees alike.

Homeworking Policy is a course providing an outline of an organisation's policy and work arrangements in relation to staff who are homeworkers.
