According to the government statistics of Germany, the proportion of employees working from home has increased from 12% to 25% during COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the German government has granted an Act of tax rebate to protect workers’ rights to work from home that would allow employees working from home to reduce their annual tax bill by €5 per working day, up to a maximum amount of €600 per year.
