Mileage Rates Mileage rates – Updated November 2023 Support for colleagues who travel by car as part of work
Due to the significant cost of living pressures and increase in fuel costs, NHS Employers advised NHS organisations in March 2022 they were making a case for a national agreement to improve the existing rate, and/or the 3500-mileage cap. But following the Government’s decision to reduce fuel duty by 5p per litre, we have been advised the Treasury is unlikely to agree any further national support on motoring reimbursement costs for the NHS. Alternative solutions have been sought by NHS Employers and trade unions, but it was confirmed in May there would be no change to the current position.
Recognising the impact on colleagues, the Executive team has agreed to temporarily remove the 3500m mileage cap and pay all substantive staff 59p per mile.
*We will inform of any change and share any communications received about this
ULEZ and Congestion Charge
The Trust has now confirmed that ULEZ and congestion charge can be claimed by all SABP employees who are attending Trust business where the charges apply.
This does not include daily commuting, but it does include when going on training placements.
The above means TCPs will be able to claim expenses for both of the above if attending mandatory placements and the charges cannot be avoided.
