Teleworking and home office are special forms of work. In addition to these, we find other forms of work that the employee carries out from home. As a result of the Covid–19 epidemic, these forms of work came to the fore. The epidemic brought many changes, we had to learn new concepts such as “social distance”. The motto for the spring 2020 campaigns was “stay home if you can”. It also brought with it the fact that a many people’s work activities took place outside the workplace. Digital technology, which made it possible to work from home, helped us a lot in this. However, we would definitely point out that not all work at home is done through digital devices. The virus stays with us for a while longer, so depending on the level of infection, there may be periods again when we have to work from home. This is why the aim of our study is to examine the home as a place to work. We do this in the form of presenting the relevant legal relationships and the issues and problems they generate in the light of Hungarian rules.
