How Do I Know If My Expenses are Covered?
Unfortunately, it is impossible to list every expense that must be covered by an employer. However, a few examples of expenses that may qualify for reimbursement include:
- Nametags
- Tools and equipment
- Safety equipment
- Salesman's expenses
- Mileage driven during work (not to and from work) for work related activities
- Buying uniforms with company logos or uniforms that cannot be worn after work
- Paying for work related seminars or education
- Potentially, any other job related purchase that benefits your employer
Although an employee in any field of employment may have expenses that are eligible for employer reimbursement, security guards, restaurant workers and car mechanics frequently have work related expenses that qualify for employer reimbursement.
