Discover how electric car salary sacrifice can help your businesses address some key company challenges?
Salary Sacrifice is based on a fully maintained contract hire and the employee pays the company for the vehicle with their gross pre-tax salary. Fully comprehensive insurance is also usually added which again is paid for by the employee from their pre-tax salary.
