Cell phone for private use

For many activities, a cell phone has long been an indispensable standard. Be it to stay in touch with the dispatcher, to inform customers about deviating arrival times or to clarify disagreements. Some employers allow their employees to use their business cell phone for private purposes. As the costs for telephone and contracts add up to considerable sums over time, this benefit can offer a real advantage. You will be particularly pleased that the permitted private use of the business phone is exempt from tax and social security contributions. Here too, the employer is not obliged to allow private use. Sometimes there are important objective reasons why employers do not allow private use. These could be, for example, the security of the company's own IT systems or networking with customers' systems.
