Implementing Flexible Benefits

Question

 

Hi All,

Does your company offer flexi benefits? If so, how much is the yearly entitlement and what can it be used for? Do you extend it to expats as well?

Our employees are granted $600 flexible benefit, with which they are to manage, among others, their out-patient (GP) medical expenses.

I would like to ride on this post to ask how do you manage the yearly limit of the flexi benefit?

Do you give them the lump sum at the beginning of the year or as and when they spend, they get reimburse by producing receipts and HRs will keep track of the expenses?
