Employee Reimbursements

• Employee reimbursements are not considered a desirable way to make purchases.
• They place the employee and person approving the reimbursement in a weakened position because the procedures and checks built into the purchasing process to protect the employee are bypassed.  
• Employee reimbursements are also very labor intensive (expensive) for both the department and the central offices.
• Employee reimbursements should only be used when all other avenues for making a purchase have failed and there is no alternative for making the purchase.
