teletrabalho (remote work as an employee)
Work under an employment contract done not in the office but wherever has been agreed — most often at home. It requires a written agreement; the employer provides the equipment or reimburses its cost, including electricity and internet (Código do Trabalho, articles 165–171).
Where you come across it. Employment contracts for office and IT jobs.
Up to €1 per day of remote work can be reimbursed free of tax and contributions (Portaria n.º 292-A/2023).
