Reimbursement of Expenses Policy & Guidelines (Final) PDF
Reimbursement of Expenses
The purpose of this policy is to clarify acceptable expenses incurred by employees in carrying out their duties
and this policy applies to ALL Employees of AAH.
General Principal
AAH is committed to providing employees with the equipment and support that they need to carry out their
duties, and ensuring that employees are not required to pay for items that are essential to their role. However, it
is recognised that there are situations when employees are required to incur legitimate business expenses which
will be reimbursed by AAH in accordance with the terms of this policy.
As a general rule, costs that are incurred by an employee where they will derive more personal benefit than
value for AAH will not be approved.
It is important to obtain your managers approval prior to incurring an expense to avoid the risk of the
expense not being reimbursed.
Approval for expenditure must be obtained from your Manager before expense is incurred.
Receipts must be obtained for all expenses in the form of a Tax Invoice.
Staff member and/or Client & Company names must be listed on the back of all receipts associated with
approved entertainment for FBT purposes.
An expenditure claim form must be completed and all receipts / invoices attached. A credit card statement is not
sufficient to substantiate an expense claim. If the tax invoice is lost, then it is the responsibility of the employee to
obtain a copy from the merchant. All other expenses require a receipt.
Expenditure claims must be signed by your Manager before forwarding to Accounts Payable no later than the
27th of the month. All expense claims will be reviewed for compliance with this policy and query any non-
compliant items with the appropriate Manager.
All approved reimbursements will be paid directly to the employee on the first business day of the new month.
