As an employer, you are free to choose to offer your employees ecocheques. As a shop owner, you can choose to accept green cheques as payment. This way, you can participate in the new system for raising your employees’ awareness of environmental issues.
The ecocheque is an extra-legal benefit that employers can give to their employees. This means that the green cheque is not considered salary. In other words, it is not eligible for taxes or social contributions, subject to a number of conditions:
If these conditions are not met, then the cheque will be considered salary and is therefore subject to taxation and social contributions. In 2010, the maximum total amount that employees may receive in ecocheques is 250 euros. The value of the cheque is a maximum of 10 euros and is valid for two years. This means that your employee may save up the cheques for 2 years in order to make a larger investment in energy-saving, for example.
An employer may freely choose the issuing company. In Flanders, ecocheques are provided by Sodexo and Edenred.
The ecocheques work according to the same principle as meal vouchers. But instead of employees buying food with them, they can buy ecological products or services such as energy-saving light bulbs, water-saving shower heads, bicycles and rechargeable batteries. The list of ecological products and services that can be paid for using ecocheques is available here in the CLA 98 drawn up by the NAR (National Labour Council) (link achter ‘hier’ = http://www.cnt-nar.be/CAO-COORD/cao-098.pdf). This list can be revised annually.
