Getting Your Employees To and From
Work
Commuting has significant impact on the
Workforce. Traffic congestion and
transportation costs take a toll on businesses
in the form of tardiness, missed days, lack of
job satisfaction, lost productivity and
increased employee turnover. Some of these
issues can be quantified in dollar figures,
while others are less tangible.
Employers who offer commuter
benefits are doing more than just offering a
nice perk. Many are finding being socially
responsible has increasing value in today’s global
economy. Providing information and assistance to
help alleviate the stress, time, cost and
environmental impacts of commuting is becoming a
highly attractive and valued fringe benefit.
RideWise, Somerset County's
Transportation Management Association, makes it easy for
county employers to offer commuting
benefits. Since 1991, the agency has partnered
with employers to assess
employee transportation needs, identify
appropriate options, and recommend implementation
plans, at no cost to the employer. For more
