Home to base travel expenses
Discussion
How does home to base travel expense claims work?
Are you automatically entitled to claim this?
What's the mileage limit?
What's the rate per mile?
Is it the Law or up to your employer to offer reimbursement for this expense?
Currently live 60 miles from my base but don't claim any home to base mileage.

You cant claim home to base, thats considered a normal expense for anyone. You take it off any mileage claims if you travel from home direct to customers
The only time you ever get paid when you leave your home, is if your home is your contractual work location
Or the company have forced you to move to another site, in which case for a limited amount of time, they can pay expenses for travel over and above your previous commute. Similar in some ways that they may pay for relocation expenses.The only time you ever get paid when you leave your home, is if your home is your contractual work location

If you travel a considerable distance from home to base ask your employer to change your contract. What you want is for your principle place of employment to be your home address.
Sorry, but no. Eric has already debunked this in another thread. It's about where you normally go, not what your contract says. If your normal place of work is your office then you can't claim that, regardless of what lie your contract states....AndyNetwork said:
