The employer is responsible. The law is very clear on this: the employer is responsible for ensuring that all employees have a safe system of work. It doesn’t matter whether you are in an office, a factory, down a coal mine or working at your kitchen table, the employer is responsible for your health and safety during working hours. This means that the working from home environment should be risk assessed (including digital equipment and usual assessment for computer use) a well as the mental health impacts of isolated homeworking.
