TLDR
A German man broke his back while working from home when he slipped on a staircase. The man's employer's insurance refused to cover the claim. Two lower courts disagreed over whether it qualified as a commute. Federal social court in Kassel, Germany, had to step in and flex its legal muscles. The court ruled that the injured remote work was officially commuting, and that this was a workplace accident, also officially. via the TL;DR App
