The sustainable mobility package is an innovative solution designed to encourage environmentally-friendly business travel. It is a package of benefits and incentives offered to employees by their employers in France. The package promotes sustainable modes of transport such as carpooling, public transport or electric vehicles to the workplace. Thanks to this approach, companies can actively contribute to reducing CO2 emissions and preserving the environment.
The sustainable mobility package applies to all employees in France, whether they are executives, white-collar or blue-collar workers. Its main aim is to encourage the use of environmentally-friendly means of transport for journeys between home and work. Employees who make regular journeys between home and work are therefore directly concerned by this package.
However, it is important to note that the introduction of the sustainable mobility package is optional for companies. This means that employers are not obliged to offer this package to their employees. Nevertheless, more and more companies are choosing to adopt it in response to the challenges of social and environmental responsibility, as well as employees' growing expectations in terms of sustainable development.
The sustainable mobility package encourages the use of environmentally-friendly means of transport for commuting. It covers the cost of the following means of transport:
It is important to note that the means of transport covered by the sustainable mobility package may vary according to the policies implemented by each company. However, the main objective remains to promote environmentally-friendly modes of transport and reduce the carbon footprint of business travel.
The sustainable mobility package offers attractive amounts to employees while benefiting from tax exemptions and social security contributions. This package can be worth up to €800 per year per employee. However, it should be noted that this 800€ amount is applicable when combined with a public transport season ticket. If the employee does not have a public transport pass, the maximum amount covered by the sustainable mobility package is €700 per year. It is important to note that if an employer decides to allocate a sum in excess of 800€, the excess will be subject to taxation and social security contributions.

It is important to note that the tax and social impacts may vary according to the regulations in force and the specific features of each company.
