Hi David
Your employer should not need to know about your debt situation, unless there is something in your terms and conditions of employment which requires this to be disclosed.
If the leasing agreement is in your name, but the company make the payments on your behalf through a salary deduction, the leasing company should be advised as they may be a contingent creditor. There is no reason why the agreement should not continue though - but again check the details in the agreement.
