The Mobility module is where you keep track of your travel. Based on your work schedule, you automatically receive your commuting allowance and, if your employer offers one, a work-from-home allowance. Your employer sets the amounts and rules. You can find them in the module under "How does it work?".
How it works
- The first time you open Mobility, you set up your standard weekly schedule.
- Is one week different? Adjust your schedule for that week in the app.
- Each month, confirm your schedule for the previous month, by the deadline shown at the latest.
- Your manager can review your schedule and adjust it if needed.
- You receive the allowance with the following month's salary.
Note: if you don't confirm your schedule in time, you won't receive a commuting or work-from-home allowance for that month.
Example: you confirm your February schedule by 5 March at the latest. You receive the allowance with your March salary.
Setting up your standard weekly schedule
- Open the Epassi app and go to Mobility.
- For each day, indicate whether you travel to the office, work from home or have the day off.
- Choose how you usually travel.
Making changes
Working from home more one week, or taking a day off? Adjust your schedule for that week in the app. Your allowance for that month is adjusted automatically. The following month, your standard weekly schedule is the starting point again.
Do you have a lease car, public transport pass or fixed mobility budget?
Then you usually don't receive a commuting allowance per kilometre. You do receive a work-from-home allowance if your employer offers one. Still fill in and confirm your schedule: your employer also uses your travel data for reporting, for example on CO2 emissions.
Business trips
Trips that are not commuting, such as to a client, are not part of your schedule. Submit them separately as an expense in the Mobility module:
- With a receipt, such as a train ticket or taxi ride: the amount is the amount on the receipt.
- Without a receipt, such as a trip by your own car: you enter the kilometres and the app calculates the amount.
Once approved, the amount is paid out with your salary.
Your mobility budget
Has your employer given you a mobility budget? Tap the amount in the top right. You will see your monthly budget and fixed monthly deductions, for example for a shared mobility subscription you bought in the app.
