Don’t let fraudulent mileage expenses go unnoticed in your business

 from our UK office

On average 19% of UK office workers admit to exaggerating an expense claim, whether it’s claiming that weekend meal back or an extra 5 miles on that business trip - if it can go unnoticed, it might be all too tempting for your employees.

‘Rounding up’ mileage is a common occurrence in businesses, typically adding another £5-10 to a mileage claim may seem so minuscule at the time, but per employee, it can have long-term detrimental effects.
