But calling it “extra salary” is hilarious.
“Please sir, let me pay a portion of my salary to come work for you! No? But you’ll leave my salary as is? Why thank you for the extra salary, sir!”
Lame.

Once again, the solution is to just pay employees more. Covering costs quickly results in some employees receiving more of that benefit than others, essentially forcing some employees to supplement the benefits of others.
For example, if one person is cycling to work and another parking, does the cyclist get no benefit? A parking pass they sparingly use? Maybe a credit towards a bike?
I guess it could make some sense to create a standardized benefit amount? Even then, why not just let the employee spend the money how they want?
