Does a Cash Float come out of wages?
Comments

Absolutely. Because remember, on the day you leave (or possibly earlier, they could ask for this AT ANY TIME) you'll be expected to return that £200, less anything for which you have VALID receipts.Viewing your cash float as a line of credit that you can dip into and repay is a really bad idea.
Life will be so much simpler if you get yourself a separate wallet or purse, put the WORK cash in there, only spend it on WORK expenses, and put all the WORK receipts in there immediately.
I know it's slightly different for me because I have a company credit card, but it's a disciplinary offence for me to use that card for anything which is not a valid work expense. However if I had a cash float I would treat it the same way.Signature removed for peace of mind0
