In order to support NSW Health employees during the COVID-19 shutdown, NSW Health has decided to allow salary packaging of takeaway and home delivery meals as meal entertainment benefits.
Under these temporary rules, NSW Health employees can make salary packaging claims for (and/or spend Meal Entertainment Card funds on) costs that relate to takeaway meals (including drive-through), as well as home delivery meals for immediate consumption. It should be noted however that all other standard meal entertainment requirements will still apply - namely:
Please note that the home delivery option will not include frozen meal or pre-prepared meal ingredient delivery services.
If you have any questions about how these temporary changes will apply to your circumstances don’t hesitate to contact our Customer Support team.
