Nobody enjoys filling out forms. In fact, paperwork is so despised we invented the phrase "red tape" all the way back in the 16th century just to help verbalize how irritating it is.
Today we have to deal with far more paper-pushing, and it can seriously drain employee time and resources, eventually impacting the bottom line.
So, if there was a way to cut down on the paperwork needed for employee BYOD reimbursements, that’d be worth hearing about, right?
Happier Employees
How much do employees hate filling in business expense forms? Is it really that big a problem for a business? Well…
A 2015 survey showed that 53% of respondents would rather be doing their taxes, 43% said they’d rather have to spend longer commuting and 53% actually pay for business expenses out of their own pocket just to avoid filling in an expenses form.
Most telling is that 84% of the 1,000 employees surveyed said they would think more highly of their employer if the expenses process was better.
So, yes, it really is that big a problem for your business.
Save Time
The same survey also revealed that 78% of respondents believed they would be more productive if the expenses reporting system was easier to use.
It’s hard to argue with that belief when you read a report released by the GBTA Foundation into expense reporting processes from around the globe. It reported that the average time taken to complete just one expense form is 20-minutes.
That’s 20 minutes your employee could be spending making your business money instead.
And it's not just the employee making the claim who's spending their time on that expenses claim, it's also your accountants - who need to process and check an average of 51,000 expense reports every year.
Save Money
And it isn’t just time that businesses waste on spurious expense reporting procedures, it’s money too.
Another recent report revealed that the average cost of processing a single expenses report is around $58 - but the costs don’t stop there. On average 19% of expense reports are submitted with errors included and each of these must be fixed, at an average cost of $52.
So, for every five expenses forms your business processes, you’re paying over $300 just to process them. Which is why Cass Direct2Carrier Payments™ customers have been able to achieve such incredible levels of savings.
