Slovakia
Summer is not over, there is still plenty of time to explore the beauty of Slovakia with the Edenred card! It is enough for the employer to top up your recreation allowance electronically on your card, you just choose the place and time and then enjoy it.
If you have been working for your employer continuously for more than 24 months, you can ask them for a recreation allowance of up to €500. The employer who employs at least fifty people is obliged to provide it. However, it can also be provided voluntarily by small and medium-sized companies. The recreation allowance is tax- and levy-free, so it's a great way for even a smaller employer to make their employees' non-working life more enjoyable.
The recreation allowance can be used for half-board accommodation in Slovakia. It must last a minimum of two nights and the employee's family members may be included in the final bill.
Simple as that
Some employees and employers are bothered by the relatively large bureaucracy associated with the right to pay the recreation allowance. However, everything becomes easier with the Holiday e-voucher on the Edenred card!
The employer, ready to fulfill his obligations arising from the legislation, can make his employees happy and save a lot of time and trouble for the personnel and payroll department by using the Holiday e-voucher.
While employers with 50 or more employees are required by law to provide a recreation allowance, they can choose the form in which the recreation allowance will be provided.
"It's much easier than looking for data in invoices and receipts from employees to upload funds intended for recreation to the Edenred card," explained Lívia Bachratá, Director of Public Affairs at Edenred.
After that, only a signed statement from the employee about the use of the recreation voucher is sufficient. You will have all the documents together and the information in them is clear.
