What can you salary package?


What you can package depends on which department or agency you work for. All
WA Government departments and agencies allow their employees to salary package a car, also known as novated leasing. Many employees may also be able to save by salary packaging certain work-related expenses and professional memberships and subscriptions. If you work for a Health Support Service you have the widest range of benefits available to you, including the ability to package certain everyday living expenses.
