Thinking about offering an electric vehicle (EV) salary sacrifice scheme to your employees? You’ve come to the right place – it’s best to do your research before bringing a new benefit into your rewards offering. That’s why we’ve rounded up everything you need to know about EV schemes and the providers you can choose from, so you can make an informed decision.

What is an EV scheme?

An EV scheme is a type of salary sacrifice benefit you can offer to your employees, allowing them to lease or finance an electric vehicle in a cost-effective way. This is a great way for employees to save money on what is usually considered a large and expensive purchase, but also an environmentally friendly travel option.

Why should you offer an EV scheme to your team?

An EV salary sacrifice scheme can save not only your employees money, but your business, too. That’s because companies who offer this scheme benefit from reduced national insurance contributions, as employees will use their pre-tax salary to pay for the car.

Plus, an EV scheme can help your business reach its ESG goals thanks to its ability to reduce your carbon footprint. So you can save money and have a positive impact on the planet.

Another reason you might choose to offer this kind of scheme is to make your workplace more attractive to future candidates. High salaries are no longer the only way to stay competitive as an employer – employees these days want better benefits too, with three quarters of people claiming they want the EV scheme in particular.

We can all agree it’s important for employers to be fair and treat their staff equally. Offering an EV scheme can help with this, as it gives employees at lower income levels the opportunity to purchase a vehicle and potentially save money commuting to work.
