Company cars and benefits in kind: the HR side

The vehicle fleet is not your job, but it lands on your desk. You decide who is entitled to a vehicle, you check the licenses, you answer payroll and you name the drivers who have been booked. Dadycar brings that information together in one place, up to date and exportable.

Three facts before opening the subject

  • Up to -70 % of the time spent producing the reports you pass to payroll and to management.
  • Three modular pillars: fleet management, telematics, car sharing. You only open what HR needs.
  • Public pricing: €6 excl. VAT per vehicle per month for fleet management, €16 with telematics, easy to cost in a department budget.

What takes your time today

  • Allocation requests arrive with no written framework. You answer case by case, and every refusal is up for discussion.
  • Arrivals and departures are caught up with afterwards. A vehicle stays assigned to someone who has left, a license was never checked.
  • Payroll and fines ask for data you do not have. You rebuild it by hand, in a hurry, against a deadline.

What Dadycar changes for HR

Your three sensitive files become screens: who is entitled to what, who drives what, and what payroll must receive.

Written allocation rules

Car policies set the framework by population: permitted engines, maximum TCO, WLTP CO2. The list of eligible employees and their renewal date is held there.

A complete employee record

Every employee carries their record: role, home site, RFID badge, account status. An arrival or a departure is handled in one go.

Licenses and insurance that expire

Documents carry an expiry date. Driving licenses, insurance certificates and contracts come up as a reminder before the deadline, with a named owner.

Benefit-in-kind report

The benefit-in-kind report picks up the vehicles, their assignments and their fleet data. You pass a file to the payroll manager instead of a rebuilt spreadsheet.

Fines and driver designation

The Offenses module collects ANTAI notices and post-parking charges. The vehicle's assignment at the date of the offense is readable, and the designation rests on it.

Named or pool, the difference is visible

The dashboard splits the fleet between named vehicles, pool vehicles and unassigned vehicles. A shared vehicle stops being a vehicle allocated in practice.

How it works

  1. 1Import the fleet and the employees. Every employee receives their site, their role and their badge (employees and sites).
  2. 2Upload the documents and set the due dates. Licenses, insurance and contracts trigger reminders (reminders and due dates).
  3. 3Frame the allocations. The car policy defines who is eligible and on what conditions (car policy and vehicle ordering).

Related roles and industries

  • Company leaders: deciding the budget for allocated vehicles (see the page).
  • Purchasing manager: framing renewal and orders (see the page).
  • Commercial fleets: the industry with the most allocated vehicles (see the page).

Let us look at your real cases

Bring two situations: an allocation under way and a fine to designate. We run them through the tool during the demo.

What you will be told internally

  • “That is a payroll matter, not an HR one.” Dadycar produces the report from fleet data; the payroll calculation stays with the payroll manager.
  • “Drivers will refuse to be tracked.” The HR file holds up with no telematics: records, documents and assignments are enough.
  • “We have no time to re-enter everything.” The fleet and the employees are imported, then every movement is updated as it happens.

Frequently asked questions

Is a company car a benefit in kind?

Benefits in kind are goods or services provided by the employer to the employee, including making a vehicle available. They form part of pay and are subject to social security contributions, CSG and CRDS, with limited exceptions (service-public.fr).

How is the benefit in kind of a vehicle assessed?

The benefit arising from the private use of a vehicle made available is assessed by two methods: an annual flat rate, or the costs actually incurred. The applicable scales are published by the tax authorities (BOFiP). The benefit-in-kind calculator applies the 2026 scale to both methods.

Who must name the driver after a fine on a company vehicle?

The legal representative of the legal entity must name the driver within 45 days of the fine notice, under article L. 121-6 of the French Highway Code. Failing that, they face a fixed fine of €675 (ANTAI).

Does Dadycar calculate employees' pay?

No. Dadycar produces a benefit-in-kind report from fleet data: vehicles, assignments, specifications and costs. The calculation, the payroll entry and the declaration remain the responsibility of the payroll manager.

How do you track employees' driving licenses?

The Documents module holds licenses, insurance and contracts with their expiry date. A reminder goes out before the deadline, with a named owner, which avoids the annual mass check.

Can allocated vehicles be told apart from pool vehicles?

Yes. The dashboard splits the fleet between named assignment, pool vehicles and unassigned vehicles. Shared vehicles are booked from the schedule and unlocked with an RFID badge.
