The government made an agreement with the opposition aka blue parties (Venstre, DF, Konservative) regarding the working environment rules at home. The new rules apply from the 1st of May 2022.
- The “special screen rules” say that you can use your desk, chair and computer from home if it meets requirements. Otherwise, the employer must provide you with a desk, chair and computer.
- Until now, the “special screen rules” were activated only if you worked more than 2 days per week at home. From now on, the “special screen rules” must be ensured if you work at least one day per week at home.
- The new rules have been criticized by HK (office workers trade union) as now the employers might request the employees to invest in home offices if they want to work from home.
