Recently enough, we have supported the rights of workers to request remote working, but it seems that this is being done in a way in which somebody can look for remote work in their home, but the onus potentially falls entirely on the employer to ensure the suitability of the premises. It would be helpful if the HSA could provide some information on how employees assess their own environment. Not every aspect of people working from home can fall back on the employer.
