OG’s Cycle to Work Scheme
While we’re on the topic of cycling to work – we’d like to take the opportunity to promote one of our amazing staff benefits – OG’s Cycle to Work Scheme!
Did you know? Oxford Global are part of the government sponsored Cycle to Work scheme - which all staff are eligible to participate in (on passing probation).
- The scheme allows staff to pay for a bicycle (+ safety equipment) without having to pay income tax & NI on the purchase.
- OG purchase the bicycle & safety equipment of your choice
- This is hired to you over an agreed period (usually 1 year or 18 months)
- You make monthly repayments (less income tax & NI) by salary sacrifice
- At the end of the agreed period, OG may offer you the option to buy the bicycle & safety equipment at market value or allow you to continue using it but at no further cost
