I'm curious to know what other company's travel policies state - specifically are there spending limits on meals. The reason I'm asking is because I need to establish a policy for my company. We are fairly large with over 25 manufacturing plants, and I can't believe we don't have a policy.

Recently, one of my employees turned in an expense report for a training class she attended. She paid for lunch and dinner for two people and turned in $160 for dinner and $125 for lunch. This was in Chicago and the receipt did not include any details - just the signature page with total amount.

My corporate office rejected the amounts. We do not have regular travelers in my plant and so I need to establish a policy so that everyone knows in advance what is expected. At a former company, we had spending limits for "big City" vs small, but it's been a long time, so I am hoping to hear what other companies are currently doing.

Thanks!
