Here at Travelperk, our workplace management team was quick to respond to the new demands of WFH. They were able to quickly recognize what we could and could not supply and set up expense processes for the cost of purchasing or transporting essentials.
At TravelPerk, we use Expensify to allow our employees to make expense claims. Working from home meant paper receipts were not an option, so it was good that we were already digital-first.
Here at TravelPerk, we made the decision to provide staff with a general working from home stipend. We felt this was more time-efficient than asking people to make individual expense claims for recurring things like additional data usage or stationary. Only expenses that exceed the stipend are processed by our Finance team.
