City of Braunschweig provides bicycle leasing service
In a joint initiative with Lease a Bike and the city administration, Brunswick has extended a bike leasing program to its employees. This program, aimed at promoting ecological and health-friendly mobility, is part of Volkswagen Financial Services AG's sustainable mobility initiatives.
The Lease a Bike service, a subsidiary of Volkswagen Financial Services, offers a variety of bicycles, including high-quality, e-bikes, and cargo bikes, sourced from specialist retailers and online vendors. The leased bicycles come with subsidies for the company, and the lease rate is deducted from the gross salary in a tax-advantageous manner through salary conversion for the company bike.
Mayor Dr. Thorsten Kornblum expressed delight about the offer, stating it provides employees an attractive option to shape their mobility. The comprehensive insurance and maintenance package, which can be individually configured, is included in the program, ensuring peace of mind for the city's employees.
The leasing period for the provided bicycles is three years, and the program is available for commuting, business trips, and leisure time. The city administration allows its employees to use the bicycles for all their mobility needs, making it a versatile and sustainable choice.
It's worth noting that the city administration's partnership is with bike leasing provider "Lease a Bike", and the responsible persons for awarding the rental of company bicycles to employees in the city administration are typically found in departments managing personnel services or specific mobility programs, often coordinated by urban planning or facility management offices within the city administration; exact contacts can vary by city and are not explicitly detailed in the provided search results.
This bike leasing model demonstrates Volkswagen Financial Services AG's commitment to environmentally friendly, healthy, and flexible mobility solutions. The city of Brunswick's bike leasing program continues to be manufacturer-independent, offering city employees a wide range of options to choose from.
