Travel and Subsistence (Salary Sacrifice) - eZworkforce T&S

HM Revenue and Customs can grant dispensation to employers of temporary and overarching contracted employees. This dispensation reduces the requirements to complete travel and subsistence expense details against yearend forms P11D and P9D; additionally it allows payment of fixed subsistence amounts depending on how long the employee works and when they work.

Example Saving: Based on a 4 Week Period
The employee receives £5 Subsistence and £12.57 Mileage every shift
  Pre Scheme Post Scheme
Hours 160
Rate £8.25
Employee NI £97.00 £58.28
Employee Tax £164.04 £94.00
 
Employee Net £1058.60 £1167.72
   
Employee Benefit £109.12
 
Employer NI £112.88 £67.84
 
Employer Saving (NI Only) £45.04
Employer Annual Saving (NI Only) £585.52
Note that the Employee Benefit above may also be shared with the employer for administrating the scheme.

When employees usually go to work they go to a fixed location such as their head office, and they would not normally be able to claim for travel or subsistence. Temporary workforces such as Security Guards, Cleaners and Temporary Agency staff travel to temporary (3rd Party) work places on short term contracts and can with dispensation from HM Revenue and Customs, be paid both their travel expenses and a subsistence value to cover meals.

The dispensation allows the employee to sacrifice some of their pre-tax/NI pay in return of a post tax/NI benefit.

Organizations that have obtained dispensation and run this scheme will pay much less Employer NI, but can also share in the savings/benefit given to the employee combining to create a major cost saving.

eZworkforce Professional, and eZworkforce T&S will manage every aspect of compliance and eligibility, calculating routes and travel and all with a full audit trail. Both applications have an easy to use, intuitve interface and offer great flexibility with full control of exactly how you want to run the T & S scheme.

Both eZworkforce Professional and eZworkforce T&S are competitively priced and offer a fast return on investment.
