Workspace reimbursement for home chair or desk.

Under the WKR targeted exemption for arbo (workplace) provisions an employer may provide desk, chair, monitor and keyboard tax-free. Part of the deal is that it fits arbo requirements for the role.

Try this first

  1. 1Write a policy: per-category budget (chair, desk, monitor) or list of vendors to choose from.
  2. 2Choose between reimbursement (employee owns) or loan (employer owns), loan is simpler for tax.
  3. 3Single-vendor purchase orders (BMA, Backshop, Vepa) are cheaper than everyone shopping alone.
  4. 4Document return-on-leave terms: loan = return on exit, owned = they keep it.

When to bring us in

Employee wants a 1500-euro Aeron: it fits the arbo exemption if ergonomically justified, but feel free to cap the budget to keep things even across staff.
