He also covers achievement awards, athletic facility exclusions, and provides essential guidance on accountable plans, explaining the three critical requirements employers must follow to ensure expense reimbursements remain tax-free for employees while maintaining deductibility for the business.

    Jeremy continues his series on IRC Section 132 fringe benefits, focusing on working condition fringes and de minimis benefits—two categories that help employees be more productive or boost workplace morale. From company vehicle mileage tracking and employer-provided cell phones to why office snacks are excludable but gift cards never are, this episode clarifies which everyday workplace benefits can legally avoid taxation. Jeremy emphasizes the critical importance of documentation and explains the strict substantiation requirements that apply to many of these benefits.

  • Tax-Free Employee Benefits Part 1: No-Cost Services and Employee Discounts

    Tax-Free Employee Benefits Part 1: No-Cost Services and Employee Discounts
    Dec 10 2025

    Section 132 allows employers to provide certain fringe benefits tax-free, but only if they follow specific rules. Jeremy breaks down no additional cost services, like airline employees flying on empty seats, and qualified employee discounts, explaining the 20% cap on services and the gross profit limitation on products. He covers the critical "line of business" requirement, who qualifies as an employee beyond current workers, and why highly compensated employees face stricter rules.
