I understand this topic has been discussed previously. But I have different scenario here and hope someone here can help. So I have recently started a contract with a company and the company promote being active and health, so they gave us a pedometer and target to track our activities on daily basis. I am not a regular runner so I have to purchase a pair of trainer for this. So I only buy this pair for work purpose. So can l claim this through my expenses? Many thanks.

Yes you can. Also if you **** up your contract you can also pay for the can of lube you're going to need when they find out.Originally posted by Jessicafang View PostI understand this topic has been discussed previously.

Don't forget to expense a fitbit to go with it as wellSocialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.
No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.Comment

You can also claim for the Physiotherapy, Osteopathy and Personal Training incurred wholly and exclusively in the conduct of your business. Whether it's allowed or not is a different matter.I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).Comment
