The Belgian Government decided in 2003 that
the trip to work by train will be free for
employees of the public sector as of 1st March
2004.
This decision, whose cost for 2004 is
estimated at €15 million, will be extended to
private companies in 2005.
Companies that
will pay for the transport costs of their
employees will be granted subsidies by the
Government reaching 20% of this cost.
