SAVINGS-RELATED SHARE OPTION SCHEMES (SAYE) A Savings-Related Share Option Scheme – also known as a Save As You Earn (SAYE) scheme – is a Revenue-approved employee ownership scheme that allows employees to exercise options in company shares on potentially favourable terms and without having to borrow money. Under this initiative, an employee agrees to set aside an amount from their net pay for a specified period. At the end of that period, the employee can choose whether to exercise options to the value of the accumulated savings or have that money returned to them.
