TAX-FREE COMMUTER BENEFITS

Who needs to be involved in implementation?

  • Public and private employers interested in saving tax dollars and providing their employees with incentives to use alternative transportation

  • Transportation authorities seeking additional riders through incentive programs with employers

  • Tax consultant or human resource professional

Resources

  • There is some cost to establishing the program; however, this is often covered by payroll tax savings.    This program can be administered using the same mechanisms by which employers manage medical benefits or 401K plans, either in-house or by utilizing human resource consultants.  Employers should note that transit commuter benefits represent a less costly employee benefit than parking benefits.
