Enterprise: Ending mileage payments saves cash

Date: 10 February 2014   |   Author: Martin Gurdon

Enterprise Rent-A-Car is claiming one of its clients has gained an annual £1500 per driver saving by abandoning mileage reimbursement.

Investors in People Scotland paid its consultants a mileage fee to use their cars for work, but with up to 15,000 miles a year covered, staff found this entailed "significant" wear-and-tear expenses.

"Previously, many organisations saw mileage reimbursement as a discreet 'perk', and worried that employees would resist any effort to remove the casual income that is possible when you drive your own vehicle," said Enterprise Rent-A-Car business rental head Adrian Bewley.

He claimed that more staff were now aware of the impact using their own vehicles for work had on maintenance costs and re-sale values, so were now willing to move away
from mileage reimbursement.

Investors in People Scotland agreed a pre-arranged, fixed-price rental cost. Both it and Enterprise believed that driving newer rental cars also cut running costs and emissions.
