Definition

The flex fund is a sum of money provided by an employer to an employee for that employee to spend on flexible benefits.

A flex fund is allocated within the Additional Funding Scheme in Flexible Benefits for Great Britain (GB FlexBens).

Employees are offered a list of flexible benefits, from which they can make their selections, paying for these with their flex fund. The value of an employee's flex fund can be calculated in a number of ways:

  • As a set percentage of basic salary
  • As a set value, dependant on grade or position of employee
  • Based on value of benefits held before the introduction of flexible benefits
  • As a percentage of Base Salary, plus the value of existing benefits
  • Individual calculation per employee
