This Government backed scheme lets employees get a new bike for cycling to work, and because they pay for it through a salary sacrifice arrangement, employees can make significant savings in income tax and National Insurance. Your employees could save up to 42% on the cost of a bike and cycling safety accessories through reduced tax and NI. And as an employer, you will also save money on your NI contributions too.
