We have a workforce that permits employees in certain locations to work a hybrid schedule of 2 or 3 days in the office depending upon the location. Since this is becoming a policy, how do you split the taxation in payroll between the worked in state which is the office 2-3 days and the home office state (if different than the physical work location) for the remaining days? This would become a burden to allocate a percentage of tax to one state vs the other but looking for ways to track and report for payroll. Of course, we would have to take into account the rules of each state as well. Does anyone have a policy to share or a tracking method? Thank you in advance. 

Definitely a burden, not only for payroll, but for company income tax allocation and reporting. My policy is I don't allow working from another state, and not from any location I did not authorize in advance. While that allows termination, if an employee were to defy me, and work, say in NY, then even though I did not allow it, I would have to report yo NY for payroll liabilities as well as income tax.
