Food vouchers

Our employees receive food vouchers (not restaurant vouchers!) via Pluxee. The amount permitted by law (without taxes) is 2€ per day. We pay the amount via virtual cards quarterly in arrears.
The vouchers are valid for usage in restaurants and supermarkets (see merchant-finder).

For making the administration easier, we pay a standard amount for 18 working days per month (which is 18*2=36€; 108 per quarter), instead of the number of days actually worked (this is possible according to LStR 95a). This means that we pay out the food vouchers once per quarter for the past quarter. Employees working part-time receive the aliquot amount.
If an employee doesn't work for a longer period of time (e.g. sick leave of several weeks), we stop paying out the food vouchers due to legal reasons.

We pay food vouchers voluntarily. There is no legal entitlement.

The payouts are initiated at https://clients.pluxee.at/ (Aron or Christoph).
