Using FBT Strategy to your advantage 

Your company can save thousands of dollars through the effective use of the Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) legislation.

The spirit of the legislation is to provide employers with the framework to attract and maintain quality employees with a greater range of tax effective benefits while not increasing payroll costs.

Trinitas can provide a strategic review of your existing employee benefits and FBT program, develop internal policy documents for your employee benefit program including; motor vehicle usage, benefit inclusions and restrictions and offer on-going consultancy services.
