Examples of Innovative Commuter
Events:
- Employee commuting contests. Challenge employees
to not drive alone to work and use other commute options.
- “Walk to Work Weeks” or similar events promoting
options for getting to work. Get your employees talking about
commuting options with a well-publicized event. See the calendar below
for a listing of national commute events.
- Wellness Fairs. Encourage walking and bicycling to
work by promoting the health benefits of "person-powered"
commuting.
- Prize drawings or bonus vacation time for commuters who do
not drive alone to work. Reward employees for socially and
environmentally responsible commuting.
