PERTH CYCLE TO WORK SCHEME

Cycle to work is a tax incentive aimed at encouraging employees to cycle to work, thereby improving air pollution and improving their health.

The scheme allows employees to benefit from a long term loan of bikesand commuting equipment such as lights, locks and panniers completely tax free.

Employers benefit from fitter, more punctual, more wide-awake staff. Employees benefit from better health and better bikes because their money goes further. With a budget of, say £400, an employee in the high tax-band can now afford a bike, plus accessories, worth nearly £800.
