I'm a Technician student beginning the Tax units for the June exams. I've downloaded the HMRC guide for Expenses and Benefits and found this paragraph:
HMRC Guide 40: Expenses and Benefits wrote:
Welfare counselling
The benefit of welfare counselling made available to all employee’s generally on similar
terms is exempt from tax. For this purpose welfare counselling does not include
• any medical treatment
• advice on finance or tax (other than debt counselling)
• advice on leisure or recreation
• legal advice.

Ignoring the extraneous apostrophe in "employee's", what exactly is covered in Welfare Counseling?

    Stress resulting from working full time coupled with studying?

    :lol::lol:

    (warped sense of humour here after spending quite a lot of time on the phone to HMRC arguing!)
