Learn About Your Employees’ Commutes
To build a commute benefit plan that will truly help your employees, we need to know what types of commutes they make and what they’re interested in learning more about. We’ll conduct a customized employee survey and prepare a map of your employees’ starting locations. With this information, we can make the best recommendations for your organization.
Explore Smart Commute Incentives
What will it take for your employees to make a change in their commute habits? What can your organization offer? We will demonstrate the power of incentivizing employees with even the smallest of budgets and opportunities. Proven incentives include:
Financial incentives (i.e., subsidized vanpool and/or bus fares, daily parking cash out, pre-tax commute costs, rewards)
On-site amenities (i.e., secure bike storage, shower/locker facilities, priority parking for carpools and vanpools)
Flexibility (i.e., telework or compressed work week schedules, flexible work hours, flexible work attire)
