Just as the rest of the business world is evolving, so is business travel. There are services available today (and your travelers are already using them) that weren’t on the landscape five years ago. Does your travel policy address those issues? Do your employees know when and if they can use them?
Thinking that all your employees have good common sense and therefore you don’t really need a detailed travel and entertainment expense reimbursement policy can get your organization in trouble on two fronts. First, inevitably, there will be a few employees who have a very-skewed idea of what is reasonable when the company is paying. And secondly, if you don’t hold them accountable for their behavior and actions, the company could run afoul of the IRS by endangering the accountable plan status.
In this session, attendees will learn how to create a plan that protects the organization while providing reasonable travel and entertainment accommodations for their employees.
Schaeffer will also discuss the newest challenge facing every organization: Reimbursement requests for working-from-home expenses. Some of them will be very reasonable, but others (like travel expenses) will stretch the imagination.
