Commuter Check
Commuter Check is a convenient
way for businesses to subsidize their employees' commute to work by public transit
and van pooling. Employers purchase Commuter Check vouchers and give them
to employees, who can apply their value toward the purchase of monthly transit
passes or tokens for most Bay Area transit systems, as well as toward monthly
vanpool fares. For more information on this program, check out our Commuter
Check page or go to the Commuter Check website at www.commutercheck.com.
Commuter Choice
The Commuter Choice Tax Benefits program is a valuable addition to any benefits package. Unlike employee benefits like health care or vacation plans,employees can use the
Commuter Choice Tax Benefit every day. For complete information, download the following Adobe PDF file produced by the Tri-Valley Resource Team:
