BNSF Travel and Entertainment Expense Policy Updates Announced

2009-10-01

BNSF's Travel and Entertainment Expense policy has been updated to reflect recent changes for air travel, vehicle rental and off-site meetings.

BNSF reimburses employees for reasonable and necessary actual expenses incurred as a result of conducting company business, such as transportation, airport parking fees, meals, hotel, baggage handling, checked baggage fees, tips, tolls and reasonable phone calls to home.

As always, check BNSF's policy if you have any questions.

The policy also describes how expenses will be reimbursed. For example, any reimbursement payment will first go to satisfy any delinquent BNSF Corporate Travel Card balances. Afterwards, the remaining reimbursement amount will be paid to the employee.

In addition, the policy provides information about a variety of travel topics, including the following:

• Appropriate approvals for travel and entertainment,
• Use of the BNSF Corporate Travel Card for business but not personal expenses,
• Use of BNSF travel management resources.
