# Example reimbursement policy: revision 1

Original fictional source written by Jellypod for a training demonstration. This is not a real employer policy or legal guidance. Reuse and adaptation of this sample are permitted.

Audience: new employees at the fictional Fernhill Workshop.
Owner: example finance team.
Status: fictional demonstration source, not an approved employer policy.

## Submitting an expense

Keep the receipt for a business expense. Submit the receipt, purchase date, amount and business purpose in the example expense form. Submit within **5 business days** of the purchase.

Ask your example manager if you do not know whether an expense is approved. Do not invent a spending limit or approval on the company's behalf. If a receipt is missing, explain the gap and ask the example finance team what to provide.

Your manager reviews the request before the example finance team processes it. A submitted request is not a promise of reimbursement.

## Review question

When should you submit the expense form and receipt?
