Antibody tests

Manjit Kaur

My company wants to offer Antibody (not Covid) tests to our employees and their families.

My understanding is that it would definitely be a taxable benefit for the employees, but does anyone know if it would be taxable for the families too?

I can't get hold of anyone at HMRC to get an answer.

Thanks.

  • Would it not be treated as a “trivial expense” and therefore not part of a BIK package? My work offer reimbursement of the flu jab and HMRC state to treat is as an expense, not a benefit. If the employee is paying for their family to have the test then that is not included in the employees P11D if you are required to declare it. If it costs less than £50 a test, it’s called as “trivial benefits” so not BIK
