¿Por qué mi jefe tiene coche de empresa y yo no?: el goteo constante de disputas legales por los vehículos corporativos
Los tribunales tienen de resolver pulsos que van desde a acusaciones de discriminación a recortes de salario encubiertos
The constant drip of legal disputes over corporate vehicles reveals a hidden facet of corporate life: they are a niche of corporate conflict. Throughout the year, a variety of discussions surrounding company cars surface in legal proceedings. The nature of these disputes is diverse. Are they a salary component? Is it necessary to pay personal income tax (IRPF) for their use? Can the company car be used to go on vacation? And if I'm caught, can I be fired? All these questions have led to lawsuits.
When a company car is used for both work and personal purposes, the employee must report to the tax authorities. In the eyes of the IRPF law, using a company car for personal reasons constitutes a kind of income. The Fieldfisher employment labor partner Talmac Bec points out that the private use of a company car is considered a non-monetary remuneration for tax purposes and must also be included in the social security base.
However, this is not the case if the vehicle is merely a work tool and its use is limited to professional activities.
