Company Cars & Fleet

Employee Benefits - Company cars & fleet

Fleet management allows employers to offer company cars to employees in different forms. If not given a traditional company car, staff are likely to receive this perk as a cash allowance which they can use to lease, purchase or hire a vehicle. Employers need to choose the most appropriate solution for drivers, whether that is an employee car ownership scheme or traditional company car, or a combination of schemes to meet various needs. It is a decision that is complicated by company car tax and maintenance management, as well as health issues such as corporate manslaughter and fleet risk. Issues around health and safety are usually associated with the cash allowance scheme because here the employee has the freedom to choose his or her own vehicle, and their choice may not necessarily be a fit for purpose car.
