Switching Working Hours and Laptop: Legal Advice

Questioner

My employer has forced me to exchange my work laptop for a new one. I also have to reinstall it. Now they say I have to do all this in my own time. I just think it is work time because it is a business laptop. How does the law look at this?

Lawyer

This is working time and will therefore also be paid by the employer. If he does not want this, then that is the employer's problem. He will then have to make the choice. He cannot force you or fire you. If you would like further help and/or advice, please feel free to contact me.
