Where does the massage benefit work?
Regular massage promotes ergonomics, supports the health of the body and mind, and reduces sick leave. By offering massage benefit, you invest in your staff in the long term, as well-being employees are efficient employees.
Please note that the massage benefit cannot be used to pay for spa services.
Physiotherapy services are also possible
The Tax Administration determines that the massage benefit can also be used to pay for physiotherapy services. However, the condition for this is that the company has mentioned in the occupational health care agreement, regulations, or other similar documents that physiotherapy is part of the company's occupational health package.
Taxation of the benefit
Massage is a tax-free benefit, which according to the Tax Administration must be offered normally and reasonably. The benefit must be offered collectively to the entire staff within the tax-free maximum limits
In addition, the Tax Administration instructs that the employer must define the places where the targeted payment method (i.e. massage benefit) can be used. This is done through an agreement between the company that orders the benefit and the merchant that offers massage services. Edenred offers a tool for this, which makes it easy to create contracts online.
Use of benefits according to user's own choice
If you offer your employees a commuting, Virike and/or dental benefit in addition to Massage, Edenred's MyChoice feature allows transferring the balance between them. In this way, employees can use their benefits even more flexibly, however taking into account the maximum limits defined by the Tax Administration
