Job bike
Choose and start cycling! Your job bike
Whether mountain bike, cargo bike or e-bike: as part of the FlexBenefits Budget, employees can choose the bike that suits their needs.
Leased from Fresenius, ridden by you – for both work and private use. Not only do you receive an allowance of EUR 30 from Fresenius, but you also benefit from tax advantages.
The job bike can be applied for from December.
Financing
In principle, you pay for the lease and insurance costs of your bike. The contribution from Fresenius reduces your own contribution. It is deducted from your gross salary by means of deferred compensation.
Information on participation
No eligibility
Apprentices/trainees (“Duale Studenten”), temporary staff, employees who are in their probationary period or are expected to be employed by Fresenius for less than 36 months, and employees with regular or recurring claims cannot use this purpose for the FlexBenefits Budget.
Tariff employees
Employees covered by collective bargaining agreements can only use above-tariff allowances for their own contribution to the leasing installments. Due to the collective agreement, tariff wages cannot be converted.
Non-tariff employees and managers
Non-tariff employees and managers can convert their current monthly gross salary.
Double benefit
EUR 30 from Fresenius
With the Fresenius FlexBenefits Budget, Fresenius pays EUR 30 towards the monthly leasing installment costs. Over the leasing period, that is more than EUR 1,000 towards for your favorite bike.
Tax advantage
The contribution for the bike leasing is converted from your gross salary. The FlexBenefits allowance itself is exempt from tax and social security contributions. However, the non-cash benefit for the private use of the bicycle is taxable. This is 0.25% of the bike’s list price.
The application
Your job bike will be available here shortly. We are currently still in the process of implementation with the provider - therefore the job bike cannot yet be applied for. We will inform you as soon as this is possible.
Frequently asked questions
How long will I receive the Fresenius allowance?
The FlexBenefits Budget ends automatically after 36 months at the end of the leasing period or if the leasing contract is terminated prematurely (e.g. if you leave the company).
