Remote Work Policy

POLICY EFFECTIVE DATE:

Purpose and brief description of the policy


Example: This policy is an outline of [our company’s] remote work policy. We are a hybrid company with full-time remote employees, full-time office employees, and
now the option for office employees to work remotely. This policy will include both full-time remote employees and part-time or flexible remote employees.

Who the policy covers


Example: This policy applies to all full time, U.S.-based employees who have worked at the company for at least six months.

Defining remote work


Example: “Remote work” is defined as working during an employee’s working hours anywhere outside of our office, located at 123 Main Street, Pleasantville, CA.

Tools and support


Example: All employees who work remotely more than 25% of the time will be granted a $150 monthly stipend for office-related expenses like wireless internet. Employees
must submit a request for the stipend through their manager. All employees who choose to work remotely will use their company laptop but must supply their own WiFi.
Communication
Example: During remote work hours, employees must be available via Slack, Zoom, email, and/or phone. Employees are responsible for updating the following when working remotely and
giving at least 24 hours notice to their manager when working remotely.

Employee responsibilities while working remotely:


• Update shared Google Calendar with current location and working hours
• Update Slack away messages and be available to respond within 2 hours
• Check in with direct manager at least twice in a given workday

Requesting to Work Remotely


Example: Employees must give 24 hours notice prior to working remotely. Managers reserve the right to reject a request, within reason. If
the request is denied, employees may take a sick or vacation day.

Meetings
Example: All employees, both remote and in-person are required to attend meetings. If the employee is working remotely, they are required to attend via video conferencing. If video
conferencing is not available, employees may call in via phone as a secondary option. If an employee is unable to attend a given meeting for reasons remote or otherwise, they must
notify their manager or the person hosting the meeting and schedule a debrief with a meeting attendee within 72 hours.

Approval and Tracking


Example: Employees must notify their manager 24 hours in advance of working remotely. Employees must document in their shared Google Calendar when they are working remotely.

Remote Work Agreement


Example: Eligible office-based employees are invited to work remotely two out of five days in a given work week.
For employees wishing to work remotely full time, this will be approved on an individual basis and can be discussed with your manager.
