Remote Worker Stipend Clause Samples

The Remote Worker Stipend clause establishes an employer's obligation to provide a fixed monetary allowance to employees who work remotely. Typically, this stipend is intended to cover expenses such as internet service, office supplies, or utility costs incurred as a result of working from home. By specifying the amount, frequency, and eligible expenses, this clause ensures that remote employees are fairly compensated for additional costs, promoting equity and supporting effective remote work arrangements.
Remote Worker Stipend. All remote employees (those not working at an office leased by the Employer) will receive a Remote Worker Stipend of $190 per month to provide for the needs of working remotely. If a remote employee uses an Employer-provided computer, their Remote Worker Stipend shall be $150 per month. Employees working remotely are expected to utilize the stipend to provide both for the cost of using personal technology for Employer work and for any additional costs related to working remotely, including the cost of home office infrastructure (including, but not limited to, high-speed internet, printers, desks, lamps, monitors, and other related costs). Employees shall not simultaneously receive both stipends described in Sections 19.2 and 19.3. Annually the Remote Worker Stipend shall be increased in line with that year’s COLA.
