Internet expenses allowance
Do you work from home and are you employed by Leiden University? If so, in addition to your home-working allowance, you are also entitled to an allowance for your internet expenses.
You will receive the full allowance if you register your home-working days in Shuttel. If you do not register your home-working days, you will not receive a home-working allowance for that month. You can register your home-working days in the Shuttel app or in My Shuttel (for desktop or laptop).

The allowance is €25 net per month, irrespective of your working hours and whether you work entirely or partly form home. If your register your home-working days in the same month, you will receive an internet allowance the following month. Register your home-working days no later than on the last day of the following month. If legislation is passed or a collective agreement established that has consequences for this scheme, the scheme will be adjusted accordingly.
