Keeping your personal life private — tips for employees
As an employee, think about the balance between work and home that you want and what your boundaries are. This will not be the same for every person or workplace. You do not have to tell your employer what you do or who you spend time with outside work unless it impacts on your ability to do your job.

With many employees opting now to work from home, there are many points to think about, read more below from Employment NZ.

Things to consider when working remotely:
Employers and employees should consider aspects related to employment law, health and safety, as well as costs, privacy and data security issues.

Equipment and expenses:
Employers should consider whether they need to purchase or provide allowances to cover additional office equipment and related costs to enable employees to work effectively from home. These include computers, screens, video and audio devices, and electricity or telecommunication costs.

There is no specific legal entitlement to allowances. The payment of and level of allowances, over and above salary or wages, can be agreed to by the employer and employee.
