Tips and guidelines for creating a Remote Employee Expense Policy

Happy Remote employee

Create a Remote Employee Expense Policy that is easy for employees to understand and follow, while also being comprehensive enough to ensure compliance and minimize corporate risk. 

Stay on the right side of the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) by keeping up to date on both taxable and non-taxable benefits for remote employees. In particular, make sure you understand how to:
  1. Distinguish if a benefit is taxable or non-taxable
  2. Calculate the value of the taxable benefit
  3. Calculate (if any) applicable payroll deductions
  4. File an information return related to these taxable benefits
