Introduction
We want to empower our staff to make autonomous decisions whether that is in direct regard to your work or the equipment of your remote office space. At the end of the day, you know best what you need and what fits your remote office setup in order to do your job effectively.
Equipment as standard
Before joining Camunda you will be able to choose your choice of hardware. We typically offer you a MacBook, Windows PC or Linux. You choose the hardware that will enable you to do your best work!
Additional Equipment
The items below and in the recommendations show what people commonly need and shall act as a helpful guide.
Camunda will not issue one off lump sums or partial reimbursements. There is no total budget per person. Please ensure to stick to the expense limits listed in our Global Expense Policy.
How to order
New Camundi are not able to purchase home office equipment until after their start date. This is due to compliance purposes and to ensure that the items purchased for business use is under the employment contract start and end date.
You need to order and pay in advance for any equipment (except for laptops) yourself and you are responsible for deliveries, setup, claims and potential returns. Camunda does not support this. IT only supports the devices provided by IT (laptops) and those that are recommended on our product list.
You can order each remote office item once. Reorders are possible if something is broken and if no refund/return/reorder claims are possible.
Before you order your additional home office equipment, please read our Global Expense Policy carefully and stick to the expense limits listed in the policy.
Expense Reimbursement and Invoice Requirements
For guidance regarding the expenses and/or handling reimbursements, please follow our Global Expense Policy.
Ownership
Standard hardware equipment provided to you by Camunda (such as laptops) remain property of Camunda and become part of the asset register for depreciation over 5 years. Should you leave Camunda during the depreciation period, Workwize will get in touch with you and provide all the information. You are responsible for shipping but Camunda will reimburse the shipping costs. This holds also true for equipment that you have received from Camunda prior to this procedure’s rollout.
All additional items bought under this policy will not be added as taxable income to the employee. Camunda covers any income tax that needs to be paid on these items.
If you buy items before your official start date with Camunda and decide not to join, you will have to cover the full cost of the items and/or their return to the vendor.
Internet - data stick - mobile phone
Camunda does not cover home internet connections, this also includes WiFi routers, repeaters or similar.
Please note: If you need information regarding mobile policy, please check this page Mobile Phone Policy. Costs related to business travel can be reimbursed as travel expenses. Short-term stays are personal and Camunda does not reimburse for any associated costs.
Utilities
Being a remote company, our employees work from their homes. Therefore we will not cover utilities such as gas, water or electricity. However, we support our employees to rent a desk or a working space, and we will reimburse you monthly for your cost. More details about it please click Workspace Rental.

Headset Note: Apple AirPods are not recommended. It is sometimes difficult to hear team members who are using the microphone on AirPods. AirPods also have limited battery life, which can lead to problems with them not lasting through multiple meetings. Consider options that will last longer and not cause interruptions. | JBL T450 Over-Ear Lightweight Headphones | JBL T450 Over-Ear Lightweight Headphones | JBL T450 Over-Ear Lightweight Headphones Sennheiser CX 350BT wireless earphones |
