Independent healthcare provider Novus Health has introduced an electric vehicle salary sacrifice benefit in order to extend its employee benefits package.
The scheme, which is provided by Fleet Alliance, is available for 35 eligible employees who can choose from a wide range of cars.
Novus Health, which was set up by a number of GP practices in the Wakefield and Five Towns region in 2007, communicated the scheme using a variety of channels including its intranet, regular emails, a marketing pack with details of vehicle availability and rates, and email and Dropbox content to answer employees’ questions, for example around available charging options and vehicle range.
Paul Gomersall, finance director, at Novus Health, said: “There has been a very positive reaction to the scheme to date. Electric cars are very cost advantageous because of the low taxation associated with them and our staff have appreciated that.
“Fleet Alliance has been very pro-active in communicating the scheme to our staff with a number of launch initiatives to promote its availability plus ongoing communication with employees.”
