Expand Nah. But they should be supplying equipment needed to do your job safely at home. Generally speaking people working from home are office workers so the risk of injury is low and the equipment would mainly be IT/DSE stuff, although we have had to arrange sit stand desks amongst other things at peoples houses because they had one at the office for bad backs etc. May be different if you had welders/joiners/bricklayers working from home for example, but I doubt they would be very productive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the gaffers were on his side and it was fucking BAKING in that office at times. They would buy boxes of ice pops some days to try and keep people cool.
