Depending on the reimbursement history of the company to the employee the bike allowance, the public transport reimbursement, the employer organized carpool reimbursement and the provision of a company bike can be on top or within the legal mobility budget. When is this the case?
- On top: If an employee has one of the above allowances 3 months before the request of his/her legal mobility budget, the employee can have the allowance on top of the mobility budget. This employee will get therefore by example a legal mobility budget and a bike allowance. The employer is not obliged to give these allowances on top of the mobility budget. It is thus the choice of the employer if this is allowed or not.
- Within: If an employee didn't receive the allowance 3 months before the request of his/her legal mobility budget, the employee can only get these allowances within the mobility budget. This means that the mobility budget can be used to pay for these commute. The legal mobility budget of the employee will thus by example be used to get his bike allowance.
