[quote=Anonymous]I have been in talks with a company for a new role, for which I would be hired as a fully remote employee. The position was posted as an in-person role, but after having it open for months the company has not found anyone they like for it and realized that they would have to consider remote candidates (it's a pretty technical role in a smaller geographical market). As far as I can tell, the company does not have any sort of formal remote policy but allows its employees to work remotely on a pretty casual basis.

I am confident that the folks who would be hiring/supervising me are comfortable with this arrangement, but I do worry that eventually the winds could change. I would not be local, so if the arrangement were to be put into question at some point I would essentially be losing my job. Does anyone have any tips for how to go about negotiating the remote aspect of the position prior to accepting an offer, such as memorializing it in an employment contract? I don't want to make a big deal about it, but I also want to feel secure with the arrangement.[/quote]
