Not going to happen (would be complicated and makes tax revenue collection harder and reduce govt income while enabling widespread fraud). Also worth considering this is risky from an employer perspective as having employees based in unexpected places also means unexpected, possibly large liabilities eg local sales tax, employee rights etc. Specifically for US firms, foreign employment rights differ greatly and are often stronger in ways US firms find surprising eg around annual and parental leave. For example, a someone working from, say, France for a US firm with EU retail customers could quite possibly trigger a EU tax enforcement action against the company if it’s not on top of things. Or they could quite reasonably avail themselves of their much better French leave and competition rights.
