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.
