Buy and sell holidays
Give employees the option to take extra holidays, or make extra money.
What is Buy and sell holiday?
We all have different holiday requirements — some people are happy with the standard amount, others never use their full allowance, and some people would love the option to top up their holiday allowance. With buy & sell holidays, employees can do what works for them!
This salary sacrifice scheme works by deducting the amount that a day's holiday would cost to buy from the employee's gross salary if they want to top up their holiday allowance. Similarly, if an employee sells some of their holidays, the amount will be added to their pay packet!
