Umbrella Expenses - what can you claim?

Reimbursed Expenses

If the agency or client reimburse certain expenditure, you may be able to claim these as expenses through PayStream, provided they are incurred wholly, exclusively and necessarily in the performance of your employment duties and subject to any other criteria set out in our Expenses Policy. These may include:

• Uniforms and work clothing
• Tools
• Mileage and associated costs (tolls, parking, etc.)
• Public transport (bus, train, taxi, etc.)
• Accommodation
• Meal expenses (evening meals, lunch, breakfast, etc.)

These types of expenses cannot be claimed in connection with travel or subsistence to your usual place of work, otherwise known as your permanent workplace.

PayStream contractors can record details of any allowable expenses on our portal or phone app.
