New salary sacrifice course announced by AFP and BVRLA
The Association of Fleet Professionals (AFP) has partnered with the British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association (BVRLA) to launch a new salary sacrifice course for fleets.
The online course is aimed at fleet managers and leasing company staff, and explains how to select and set up an appropriate scheme, assess which employees might benefit from salary sacrifice and identify the cars most suitable.
It also covers considerations such as national minimum wage, risk protection options for employers, parental leave, motor insurance, managing driver charges, damage, fines, and employee engagement and scheme marketing.
Ronnie Gillman, training manager at the AFP, said: “With the current benefit in kind incentives surrounding electric vehicles, there is continuing interest in salary sacrifice and demand for training that delivers high quality guidance on how to choose and operate schemes. As an organisation, the AFP works closely with the BVRLA and we are pleased to be able to offer this joint course, which comprehensively answers that need. Within a commitment of a day, it will help delegates explore the topic in detail and enable them to take action in their businesses.”
Mark Pow, head of learning and development, at the BVRLA, added:
“Our members are responsible for the vast majority of salary sacrifice programmes available in the UK, with more going live every month. Our membership and that of the AFP complement each other well, so offering our popular salary sacrifice course to the AFP’s community makes absolute sense.”
The Salary Sacrifice course will take place on 6 February.
