The Work-Related Costs Scheme (WKR in short in Dutch) allows you - under conditions – to provide tax-free benefits to your employees. This scheme was created in 2011, to combine the many schemes for reimbursements into something simpler. As of 2015, is the WKR mandatory for employers. Unfortunately, implementation of this scheme is still not easy. This is why we wrote this whitepaper for you.

What does the WKR entail? In short, the WKR describes three matters. One: which part of your labour costs are taxed, two: which part is exempt, and three: which part can be allocated to the discretionary scope. It can make quite the difference whether you put these three categories to good use - or not.

In this whitepaper, we will explain the discretionary scope, what the WKR can mean for your employees, and for you as director-major shareholder. We will also discuss the WKR’s place in your organisation; you will read about common mistakes, receive tips, and you will hear from one of our clients. From her own experience, she will tell you about the benefits of a good WKR application.
