OSHA Trying to "Protect" Telecommuters

DiabloQueen writes "MSNBC reports that OSHA says that employers are now responsible for home workstations. Wonder how many people will try to get their employers to help pay for the ergonomically correct leather executive chair they must have? " Interesting quandry - I don't think that employers should be responsible for accidents that happen in a telecommuter's home, but I do think they should help pay for ergonomic furniture and an appropriate working environment. What do you think? Is there a happy median?
