What Is Digital Nomad? | HR Glossary | BambooHR
A worker who performs their job remotely while travelling or living in different locations.
A digital nomad is an employee or contractor who works remotely while moving between locations or living abroad, relying on technology to stay connected to their role.
The lifestyle appeals to many workers and can widen an employer's talent pool, but it introduces complications around tax, social insurance, immigration and data protection.
Employers should set a clear policy on where staff may work from, for how long, and what approvals are required to manage legal and compliance risk.
