Digitization, increased internet access and the challenges of the pandemic, Covid-19, have together created new ways of working. These conditions have made it possible for many workers to have a more flexible working day. Where the work is not tied to time and space in the same way as before. Working methods that have emerged are teleworking, working from home and hybrid work. The essay investigates possible challenges that may arise from a work environment perspective, when the work is no longer performed at a permanent workplace. The essay also describes the employer's work environment responsibility when the work takes place outside his premises. According to the provisions of the Swedish Work Environment Act, the employer bears the ultimate responsibility for the work environment, regardless of where the employee has his workplace. In summary, the employer's work environment management can be made more difficult when the employee, for example, works in his home.
