What is the mobility budget and how can I use it?

The mobility budget is a legislation that allows companies to offer a more eco-friendly tailor-made mobility budget to either employees with a company car or employees who qualify for one. 

The mobility budget is based on 3 pillars:

• Pillar 1: the employee can choose a more eco-friendly car (a vehicle that emits less CO2, an electric car, etc.).
• Pillar 2: with the remaining budget, the employee can pay for more sustainable modes of travel.
  • soft mobility (e-step, hoverboard, bike, etc.)
  • public transport
  • organised shared transport
  • share cars, carpooling
  • mobility services that combine the modes mentioned

FYI: It is also possible to finance accommodation costs (rent and mortgage interest) if the employee lives within a 5 km radius of the usual place of work (or if he/she works from home for most of the employment time).

• Pillar 3: the budget that hasn't been used is paid to the employee once a year.
