## Description

The Childcare Voucher Scheme allows employees to use Salary Sacrifice to vary their contract of employment to give up part of their salary in return for childcare vouchers\. This means that employees legally agree to receive less pay in exchange for vouchers\. The childcare vouchers can then be used to purchase childcare at a number of approved childcare providers nationwide\.
