Mobile Devices As Profit Generators

Mobile Devices as Profit Generators Issues

  • “Evidence shows that organisations typically pay out 24.7% more in fuel and mileage expenses than they need to” (The Miles Consultancy)
  • “93% of the companies that we’ve looked at rely on unaudited mileage reports and are therefore at risk being caught by a tax investigation” (The Miles Consultancy)
  • If an employee on the National Average Wage (£27,200 in 2011) who is paid overtime at Time and a Half exaggerates their weekly overtime claim by just one hour a week, this costs their employer nearly £1200 per annum

According to industry experts including The Miles Consultancy, Fleet Innovations and Web Expenses, employees routinely exaggerate their business mileage claims by either ‘rounding up’ the mileage on journeys they have made or adding in ‘phantom’ journeys they have not made.

Many managers are responsible for checking the accuracy of timesheets and approving them before they are sent to the payroll department. This can be a difficult and time consuming task.

It is important to record time spent at defined locations, sites and zones for compliance and service level agreements. It is difficult to monitor the arrival and departure times of employees at chosen addresses and a company needs to be able to analyse key performance indicators between different employees.
