Re: Travel expenses

"People not claiming back £14,000 per year for travel would not be a terrible thing. Employees pay their travel out of their wages (after they've paid tax too)"

Utter arse gravy.

For a start a permie wouldn't be able to commit to that commute and if they needed to for a short term placement their company WOULD have to pay it.

As for the paying commuting expenses from post tax income... Also arse gravy in many situations.

Every permanent employer I've had has offered travel loans for the purchase of rail cards etc, the loan is paid back as part of salary sacrifice.

This is a very common arrangement.
