If I was your manager, the questions I would ask are:

- Do you have a designated space that is adequate and safe for work?

- Do you have an ergonomic setup including an ergonomic chair and desk?

- Do you have reliable / high speed internet connectivity?

- Do you have a proper microphone setup? (and camera if required)?

- Will you commit to be responsive via instant messaging or another communication solution during office hours?

- Will you comply with good practices regarding the handling and disposal of confidential or sensitive information?

If you can answer yes to all of that, I would have no problems with you becoming a remote employee.
