Not an expert but wouldn't you be able to deduct it from your taxes anyway?

  That works if you are doing consulting on your own but not for full time employees.

    It does in Australia. It's a work expense. Just because there are other options that are free it doesn't mean it's not deductible. That'd be like telling a carpenter they have to use a tree branch as a hammer. But I'm no tax expert in your region, so it might be worth investigating if you're not certain.

      The thing is I need to do Itemized Deductions if I want to tax deduct that expense here in the US. The problem is that it many a times comes out less than the standard deduction.
