Receipt #237550 to The Workers Policy Project

 

The Workers Policy Project  will cover the financial cost of transport, food and accommodation when traveling.

Transport: We prioritize low-carbon transport means (train, bus, cycling) even if the cost is higher. We trust people to make a decision that is right for them. We welcome these conversations in the team if you have any doubts.

Milage: We will pay 45p per mile for cars and vans for the first 10,000 business miles and 25p for each mile over the 10,000 mark.

Accommodation: We will cover the costs of overnight stays where there are meeting on consecutive days, or where the journey is exceptionally long or late at night/very early in the morning. We welcome overnight stays where peak travel costs would outway the costs of accommodation. 

On days you are traveling for the The Workers Policy Project, food costs* can be reimbursed. You will need to collect receipts from your expenses.

*As ethical as possible
 It is agreed, as a collective, that while traveling for The Workers Policy Project work we prioritise food options from outlets and companies that do not cause great harm when it’s accessible to us. 

This includes food from outlets that are known to cause harm in the Global South, rely heavily on exploitation or are on Boycott and Divest and Sanctions lists.  We trust everyone to truly make an effort.

We can offer reimbursement for travel costs (traveling, local transport, accommodation and food) for allies.

Our expenses policy is based on trust, we expect everyone to be careful with the organisations finances and want to maximise how we use for the best possible outcomes. Whilst we will opportate on a basis of trust, expenses will be reviewed quesrtery by the board to ensure we are all spending wisely. 

All expenses must have a valid invoice or receipt.
