I suspect it would cost me money in the end because I'd have to free time to spend money.

as a business, if you are evaluating the cost savings for employees, you can't assume what they'll spend they're time off doing or what they'll spend their money on. it is simply a cost savings in that X amount of employees don't have to spend money in gas driving to work.
