Greater tax breaks for people working from home will form a major part of October’s budget, as part of a bid to promote remote working.
Under the plan, announced on Friday by Tánaiste Leo Varadkar, employees will be given a legal right to request permission to work from home and an onus will be placed on employers to explain why such a move is not possible.
