[QUOTE 4896872, member: 45"]Does anyone have any knowledge of this? The company Mrs P works for is fitting cameras and trackers in all works vehicles. That's fine, it's their property. But I'm interested in the vehicles with permitted personal use. Are there any regulations? Is your employer allowed to know exactly where you've been when you're out of work driving your "benefit" car? Anyone have any thoughts?[/QUOTE]
It's all very big brother. Personally, I got out of the company car thing years ago and despite the risks of anything going wrong with the car being MY responsibility, the wage packet at the end of the month is always more than it was without company car tax being deducted. BUT, I was warned by my manager yesterday that one of our number had claimed for a daily lunch allowance when that person had been at home and this was rumbled by the accountant of all people. So since we can't be tracked by cars, we can be tracked via the locations of our mobile phones.
