BASIC’s Fringe Benefit Accounts give employers the flexibility to offer unique emerging benefits that employees are longing for with administrative support to lessen the burden on HR and Management.
The trend of allowing employees to work remotely is here to stay.
For remote employees to be productive, effective, and happy, employers need to implement or rethink home office policies, procedures, and benefits.
An IRS compliant Home Office Account allows remote employees to be reimbursed for home office expenses on a tax-advantaged basis. Additionally, employers do not have to pay payroll taxes on contributions.
Professional Business Expenses, Travel and Business Meals, Work Clothes, and Workplace Tools Accounts are also available through our Accountable Accounts.

This account isn’t limited to the COVID-19 vaccine. Clients can also incentivize their employees to get the annual flu shot as well.

Employers can also gift post-tax funds to employees struck by financial hardships resulting from a sudden unexpected event.
Increased employee retention and stress reduction are two top reasons for employers to offer financial wellness initiatives like the BASIC’s Employee Crisis Fund.

Our Employee Achievement & Award Account is a way for employers to incentivize their employees for specific achievements within the organization. Employers determine which accomplishments qualify for an award and then deposit the funds directly into the employee’s Achievement & Award Account, which can be used for any expense the employee chooses. No more purchasing gift cards or certificates that come with a convenience fee or restrictions on where they can be spent.
Employers can opt for the first $400 to be tax-exempt for employees.
