πŸš— Mobility πŸ›΄

Mobility is more than just getting from A to B - it's about flexibility, sustainability, and making the journey your own. πŸš€ πŸš΄β€β™‚οΈπŸš†πŸš—


In short:

Short term

You can choose to start with either: - Mobility Budget right away, or - A temporary 'starter car' (a rental car for a limited period)

Long-Term

After some time, you have the option to: - Choose a Company Car through Lizy or Alphabet Lease platforms, or - Opt for the Mobility Budget after all


🏒 Company Car vs. Mobility Budget

Company Car

  • A fixed Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) budget assigned to you according to your wage category
  • Includes a fuel/charging card
  • Selected through Alphabet Lease or Lizy

Mobility Budget

  • A budget equivalent to the TCO of a company car
  • Extra flexibility in spending
  • We work with the Olympus mobility platform
  • Comprised of 3 pillars (details below)

πŸ“œ What is the Mobility Budget?

The Mobility Budget is a fixed amount that you can use to manage your own transport needs, including:

  • Purchasing an (electric) bike, scooter, or e-step
  • Subscriptions to public transport (De Lijn, MIVB, etc.)
  • Housing costs like rent or mortgage payments (this is most used by our consultants)
  • Use of shared transport options (Uber, taxis, shared cars/e-steps)
  • Parking fees
  • Up to 30 days per year to rent a diesel car (e.g., for vacation)

Submitting expenses is easy - just upload a photo through the app! πŸ“±

πŸ›€οΈ The 3 Pillars of the Mobility Budget

Pillar 1: Electric/Low-Emission Company Car

  • Maximum 95g COβ‚‚
  • Each new car should have lower emissions, ideally going down to 0 (electric)
  • Includes costs for charging/fueling, administration, and company taxes
  • Perfect if the car’s class isn't your top priority
  • Any remaining budget can be used on the other pillars

Pillar 2: Sustainable Transport & Housing Costs

Examples include: - Purchasing or renting (electric) (moped) bikes, along with insurance and maintenance - Public transport tickets or subscriptions (for both Belgium and abroad, family members included) - Parking fees for public transport - Shared transport options like shared cars, e-steps (in Belgium and abroad) - Renting a car/caravan (within Belgium or abroad) - Housing costs such as rent, mortgage capital repayments, and interest (!most used!)

Pillar 3: Cash

  • Any remaining budget is paid out as cash in January
  • There is no way to transfer this remainder to the next year
  • Note: The payout is taxed at 38.08%
