For the purposes of this course, ‘homeworking’ (and ‘working from home) means and includes:
a) Occasional homeworking:
i) to complete a particular task, when working away from the office may assist in facilitating an environment where uninterrupted focus on tasks or duties can be better achieved and promote better productivity
ii) in response to a family emergency (for example where a dependant, such as a child or other relative needs care at short notice)
iii) where a temporary injury (e.g. a broken leg) makes travel to and from our usual place of work difficult
iv) where there is short-term travel disruption and it would be a more productive use of your time to remain at home and perform your contractual duties there
b) Part-time homeworking where we have agreed in writing that you may perform some or all of your contractual duties from home, and
c) Full-time homeworking, potentially, where your contract with White Label Crowdfunding permits you to be remotely located and to perform your contractual duties from home.
‘Homeworking’ does not include working from other remote locations, such as coffee shops. These locations place the security of our data and its confidentiality at risk. White Label Crowdfunding Limited specifically excludes permission to work from these locations under the terms of this homeworking policy. (For the avoidance of any doubt, however, you may on occasion, where appropriate and in the ordinary course of your contractual duties, meet with customers and other business parties in such locations and at their request. You are expected to comply with our infosec policy.)
If we agree to you working from home, you must comply with this policy. Failure to comply with this policy may lead to action being taken by White Label Crowdfunding Limited against you, under our Disciplinary Policy, which in the case of serious breaches, may result in your dismissal from the business on grounds of gross misconduct.
