I’m just confused on why they are forcing me to rent a car at their expense, instead of using my own car. this is the first year they said they are getting me a car.
what could be reasons why they would opt for rental instead of km/milage reimbursement?
I don’t wanna drive no automatic lol


They could have deals with rental companies that make the rental cheaper to them. It could be a way to save money as people won’t bother with the rental and since it’s violating company procedure, they don’t have to pay mileage reimbursement. It could be a way to funnel money to a rental company rather than directly reimbursing employees.
In the US they only reimburse around $0.50/mile (last I knew from several years ago) so it’d have to be a killer deal to be cheaper for rentals than reimbursement. OP did reference kilometers, but I imagine the reimbursement rate is similar wherever you are.
