@beccaineugene No-----there is not a provision for a W-2 employee to get a deduction for a home office for the "employer convenience." Not sure where you heard something like that. (I suspect social media).
Sorry---W-2 employees cannot deduct expenses for working from home. Job-related expenses were eliminated as a deduction for W-2 employees by the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond. Your state tax laws might be different.
