Roc Technologies is introducing an electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme to augment its employee benefits while driving environmental goals.

The scheme is being managed by fleet management company Gofor and is intended to encourage more drivers into electric vehicles.

The new benefit makes electric vehicles widely available to all eligible staff and furthers Roc’s work on its sustainability commitments.

Claire Thompson, fleet & facilities manager at Roc Technologies, commented: “We have a great partnership with Gofor, and as we continue to take steps to improve our carbon footprint, we are pleased to give our colleagues the opportunity to transition to electric vehicles. We knew we could rely on Gofor, so extending our partnership and asking them to administer this new colleague benefit and help drive our environmental goals made perfect sense.”

Roc is in the process of rolling out EV salary sacrifice to its employees across the UK, with Gofor’s scheme designed to make the onboarding, and overall transition to electric vehicles, as straightforward as possible.

The partnership extends the existing relationship between the two businesses. Gofor has been providing Roc with fleet management services since 2021, helping to support its overall transition to an all-electric fleet.

Graham Lesslie, managing director of Gofor, commented: “Roc Technologies has been a fantastic business to work with over recent years. That they’ve benchmarked our salary sacrifice plan against the market and decided to extend our partnership to include this proposition makes me immensely proud.

“It’s a testament to the hard work of both our teams and that we’ve built such a strong working relationship. I look forward to helping their employees experience the environmental and financial benefits of driving electric vehicles.”
