Currently, and prior to COVID-19, all employees have the legal right to request flexible working, which can include homeworking. During the COVID-19 crisis, emergency homeworking has been used to support the public health strategy.
The Scottish Government has produced a set of guidance notes which are intended to support employers and the self-employed with the continuation of homeworking.
The guidance can be applied across any sector where homeworking is a feasible option for both workers and businesses.
