Record number of company and salary cars: “There is no alternative means of remuneration that is equally valued”

With or without a salary car, most people continue to choose to go to work by car: no less than 60.3 percent say they always take the car. Charlotte Thijs does not see that percentage immediately drop, especially in corona times: “On the one hand, people choose a safe option where they are only in the car to move. On the other hand, the car also offers the flexibility not to have to take public time schedules into account. transport.”

It is precisely that public transport that is losing popularity due to the corona crisis: the percentage of employees who – not counting home working days – come to work every day by public transport, has fallen from 6 percent in 2020 to 5.7 percent in 2021.
