FAQ

The use of privately-owned automobiles during scheduled hours of work should be minimized and only used for purposes that cannot be accomplished by other transport means (e.g. shuttle, delivery service, rental car, etc.).

Yes, your employer can require you to use your own vehicle, but they have to reimburse you for all costs associated with travel, from tolls to mileage, to increased insurance. Since your employer is only paying mileage one-way, they may (probably are) violating Labor Code section 2802.

Under IRS general rules, all use of a company car is considered personal use unless the employee documents the business use of the car. Personal use of a company vehicle (PUCC) generally results in taxable wages for the employee. But sorting out the amount to tax can be confusing.

FAQ. How much is mileage reimbursement in California? The standard mileage rate set by the IRS, applicable in California, is 67 cents per business mile for 2024. The 2025 mileage rate is 70 cents per business mile.

The California mileage reimbursement law for 2024 and beyond is clear in stating that employers should cover all costs an employee incurs while traveling for business-related activities. This does not include the commute between home and work, but it does include travel done during work hours.

In short, yes the employer can. In California all employment is considered to be on an at will basis unless there is an agreement to the contrary about that status between the employee and employer.

A mileage reimbursement is not taxable as long as it does not exceed the IRS mileage rate (the 2023 rate is 65.5 cents per business mile). If the mileage rate exceeds the IRS rate, the difference is considered taxable income.

In California, employers are legally required to reimburse their employees for all necessary expenses incurred during work-related travel, including mileage. If an employee is not reimbursed for these expenses, they may have legal grounds to file a claim or lawsuit against their employer.

If your employees drive their personal vehicles for work, your business is at risk of financial liability in the case of an accident. In this article, we focus on non-owned autos (an exposure faced by nearly every company), what it is and how to reduce your risk to loss.
