I work in an office that has been gradually making an informal transition to home working over the last ten years or so, to the point where most of us currently work at home four days a week or so (but at our own choice -- we could come into the office whenever we like). We have now been given formal notice that our office is to close early in the new year, and that we will be expected to work at home full time.
We are expected to engage in collective negotiation with management about the terms of this move. I'd be interested to hear from anyone else who's been through such a move about what to expect and what issues we need to consider. Is there any legal requirement on the company to compensate us for changes we need to make at home to accommodate this (eg repurposing a spare room or buying a garden room), and if so, how is this assessed?
