France - Public transportation reimbursement process for employees

Public transportation reimbursement process for employees in France for the Knowledge Base:

For employees in France, it is legally required for XML to cover 50% of the commute cost (i.e. 50% of the collective transportation expenses from the home of the employee to the workplace, by means of metro, bus, tram, train, bike rental).

Please note that line manager’s approval is NOT required.

In order for employees to get the 50% reimbursed, please follow the below steps:

  1. Employees must send their correct and relevant public transportation receipts to ASKXML (on a monthly basis);
  2. The receipts are forwarded to HR Payroll Input for processing.
  3. We confirm to the employees that they will be reimbursed 50% of the cost in the upcoming payroll.
Any receipts sent before 10th of a month will be processed in the same month’s payroll run & anything sent after the 10th, will be processed in subsequent month’s payroll run.
