If you can’t find your answer here, please get in touch with us via the chat or our other support channels. We’d be happy to help you and your team streamline your planning process!

Is a home working allowance compulsory for my employees?

If my employee works from home, am I obliged to pay a fixed allowance for working from home?

This is a question that many HR managers and business owners ask themselves. When an employee starts working from home, you, as an employer, are not legally obliged to pay a working-from-home allowance. However, it is possible to pay a tax-free working-from-home allowance of €2.35 (in 2024) when the employee is working from home.

Can staff use an app to indicate where they are working?

Yes! Employees have access to HoorayHR’s handy HR app. It’s very easy to specify your place of work via the mobile app. Based on the reports, the system can calculate a tax-free allowance for working from home, or the tax-free travel allowance can be awarded to the employee. In this way, an accurate allowance can be provided for commuting or working from home; it is no longer necessary to award a fixed allowance.

They can use the app to plan their work locations for the coming week straight away. You can also easily scan a receipt or request time off.

Is it possible to set up a schedule for who works where

Absolutely! The company calendar gives you an immediate overview of who’s working when, and allows you to plan ahead straight away whether you’ll be at home or in the office. This gives you a clear overview of how many people are at home and in the office at any given time.
