Document background
The Remote Employee Equipment Agreement has become increasingly important as organizations across Canada adapt to remote and hybrid work models. This document is essential when employers provide equipment (such as computers, phones, or other devices) to employees working remotely. It helps organizations maintain control over their assets while ensuring employees have the necessary tools to perform their duties effectively. The agreement complies with Canadian federal and provincial regulations, including employment standards, privacy laws, and occupational health and safety requirements. It should be implemented whenever an organization provides equipment for remote work use, whether for fully remote or hybrid work arrangements, and should be updated as equipment provisions change or when employment terms are modified.
