Stantec UK has launched a flexible scheme to encourage employees to replace combustible fuel vehicles with electric and hybrid alternatives. We’re working in conjunction with Fleet Evolution, whose salary sacrifice scheme provides access to electric and hybrid vehicles to employees eligible to apply through Stantec’s internal benefits programme.
Current company car users have been advised that Stantec does not intend to support a traditional company car fleet beyond the end of their current lease agreements. Instead, eligible employees will receive a flexible benefits allowance, which employees can choose to use towards more sustainable travel options. Fleet Evolution’s salary sacrifice scheme will be available to all Stantec UK employees subject to the usual salary sacrifice rules. Employees can lease up to two vehicles for two, three or four years.
Subject to surveys, each leaseholder will have an electric vehicle (EV) charger installed at their property. Also, for every five leases, a charge point will be installed at a Stantec UK office, ensuring employees can charge while at work and alleviate range anxiety. Where there are longer lead times for electric or hybrid vehicles, short-term hire arrangements will be offered for interim periods, supporting the UK EV market. There are also an abundance of stock cars available with the shortest lead times, you can find our stock cars spreadsheet here.
This scheme was adapted as a response to the global pandemic and increased environmental awareness, with Stantec committing to new carbon reduction objectives and targets. Like millions of people around the world, Stantec employees have adapted to a new world and manners of working and had to follow new travel restrictions.
So far, the response to this new scheme has been positive, with 21% of current leaseholders either agreeing to or expressing an interest in a new electric or hybrid vehicle.
We’re very proud to launch this new scheme which focuses on rebranding and reframing our offer to employees with the environment in mind. The aim is to encourage further behavioural changes within our operations to support our climate change commitments and targets. We look forward to more sustainability initiatives to drive forward a focus on protecting the environment.
