Swedish medical staff to pay tax on 'free lunches': Media
The southern Sweden daily Sydsvenskan says three restaurants in Lund, one of the region's largest cities, have offered free lunches.
"It feels saddening," Asa Loven, co-owner of the Stamstallet eatery in Lund, told the daily.
In Sweden, if an employer receives lunches for the employees, it should be reported as a taxable benefit, the Swedish Tax Agency told Sydsvenska.
In Goteborg, Sweden's second largest city, a restaurant donated food to healthcare professionals directly to health staff.
However, the state agency said the giving part should report it, as it is taxable, the local newspaper Goteborgs-Posten wrote.
