Whether your company is located downtown or in a suburban office park, traffic congestion can increase your costs for recruiting and retaining employees. It can also lead to higher stress levels, lost work time and decreased employee productivity, which can affect medical care and workers’ compensation costs.

The way in which employees travel to work (as well as the cost associated with it) is an issue often overlooked by businesses. But, did you know that providing better transportation for your employees can help your business save money? According to the Transportation Research Board's (TRB) Transportation Management Association Survey, companies that provide commuter services programs cite the following benefits:

• Enhanced employee recruitment and retention.
• Increased employee productivity.
• Reduced overhead costs.
• Tax savings benefits for the company and its employees.

The North Florida TPO offers a variety of commuter solutions for your company, including:

• Carpooling
• Biking or walking
• Vanpools
• Transit
• Flextime/Telecommuting
