The Inland Revenue recommend 40p per mile, so that s what you should be getting from your employer. If you get less than this - or nothing - you can claim tax relief on the difference between what you get paid and the recommended 40p. Good little earner (it can mount up) that a lot of construction workers take advantage of. It has to be business miles - defined as being travel to a 'temporary worksite'
As far as I know the only people who get paid substantially more than this recommended amount are MPs, who are able to claim 60 pence per mile. Don't know why?
