Employees working from home: WORKERS COMPENSATION …
Sample policy for Employees working at home (tele-commuting/tele-work)
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) within the Department of Labor has stated they will not conduct inspections of employees’ home offices. They will conduct inspections of other home-based worksites, such as home manufacturing operations, when they receive a complaint. OSHA also states that they will not hold employers liable for employee’s home offices and does not expect employers to inspect the home offices of their employees.
The State provides workers’ compensation insurance coverage to employees as required by the Statute.
Workers’ compensation insurance coverage is effective only when the employee is working in the physically designated boundaries of the work (a work area separated physically from the rest of the house) and during the designated work hours and for only those duties that are performed as part of the job.
Any injury or illness arising outside of the physical boundaries, outside of the designated work hours or during the performance of activities that are not a part of the job duties will not be covered under workers’ compensation.
Falsification of any claim for workers’ compensation benefits may subject the employee to charges of insurance fraud and/or disciplinary action, up to and including termination.
Liability for personal phone lines, ISP connections, personal computers, printers, scanners, facimile machines, etc. is the employee’s responsibility.
