California’s Labor Code section 2802 requires that employers reimburse workers for all necessary expenses incurred necessary to do their work. Reimbursable expenses include repayment for cell phones and data plans, mileage and travel costs, office equipment for remote work, and home utilities, protective gear, and tools necessary to perform the job. Remote workers are eligible for reimbursement for computers, printing equipment, online subscriptions, and a portion of home internet bills.
