How does a Department of Communities Novated Lease work for employees?

Paywise can provide a Novated Lease for Department of Communities (DOC) employees through Salary Sacrifice.

Paywise’s Department of Communities Novated Lease is an arrangement whereby your employer agrees to finance your vehicle and its running costs from your pre-tax income. Paywise then facilitates a three-way Novated Lease agreement between you (a Department of Communities Employee), your employer (DOC) and the finance company, allowing you to save thousands by reducing your salary prior to tax. This process is also more commonly known as Salary Sacrificing or Salary Packaging.
