Is it better to claim employment expenses for working at home OR working from home due to COVID-19?

It depends on your situation. You can use the CRA's expense calculator to help you calculate your detailed work from home expenses. If the amount comes out to more than the $2 per day (max 250 days) that you get with the COVID-19 flat rate, then you should use the detailed method.
