ReFLEX is offering an electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme alongside our leasing partner, DriveElectric.

What is a Salary Sacrifice Scheme?

An EV salary sacrifice is an employee benefit scheme. The scheme is an agreement where an employee accepts a lower salary from their employer in return for a car benefit. The employer leases an EV, and the employee sacrifices some of their gross pay for the lease. The agreement has a number of advantages for both employer and employee.
