If you are working from home the first assumption you must make is that the employer laptop is being monitored. Maybe not every single keystroke but all the websites you visit will be tracked. So in my home office I have two computers - the one my employer gave me and my personal computer.
The one my employer gave me is only used for work - nothing else. I don't check personal email on it. I don't do any banking or bill pay. I don't use it to visit any news sites or Slashdot or YouTube or any other website I
I do the same thing. My work computer basically has nothing but work stuff on it. Very occasionally I'll come to sites like/. or Ars, but they're always very inoffensive sites and I don't spend a great deal of time on them. Usually it's just when I am stuck in a boring meeting and need to be able to hit the unmute button in case someone asks me a question. No personal email (who needs to when you have a phone) or anything like that. At the end of the day I put the system into sleep mode and close the lid.
I have my personal computer connected to a different monitor entirely, and then a USB switch for the keyboard and mouse. That is where I do all the non-work stuff.
