Did you know about the best ways to promote your commuter benefits to your employees on your HR Knowledgebase portal?
Commuting is expensive. Daily road warriors appreciate transportation perks their employers provide.
Advantages to working in person include:
- Collaboration
- Communication
- Creativity

- Idea exchanges outside of formal meetings
- Meaningful connections
- Morale
- Socializing
- Team strengthening and effectiveness
Commuter Concerns
Today’s top employee concerns entail quality of life, both professionally and personally.
Long term telecommuting can render employees resistant to returning to the office. Organizations can anticipate their concerns about transit costs, gas prices, and parking.
The Good News
Commuter benefits enable employees to spend hundreds of tax-free dollars each month on daily travel costs to and from work.
Promoting Commuter Benefits
Many organizations offer commuter perquisites aside from the Section 132(f) tax-free transportation plan.
Broadcast commuting incentives by displaying them prominently on your HR Knowledgebase portal.
Strategies follow.

Post commuter benefits information and links prominently on the HR Knowledgebase Home page so employees will see them as soon as they login:
