When your employees suffer from Single Occupancy Vehicle (SOV) disorder, your company suffers even more. Here’s how:
- Frequent Tardiness – Sitting in traffic can cause your employees to miss important deadlines and meetings.
- Decrease in Productivity – Many employees need time to decompress and regain focus after a stressful commute to work.
- Low Employee Morale – When an employee arrives to work stressed out, it can distract other employees from their work and affect their attitude.
- Higher Turnover – If the commute to your office is undesirable, it can be more difficult to recruit and retain employees.
The good news is TRAFFIX has a cure for SOV. The great news is it might not cost your company a thing.
Here’s what TRAFFIX can do for your company:
- Increase employee retention
- Improve recruiting efforts
- Boost employee morale
- Offer a no cost/low cost way to enhance employee benefits
- Improve parking for clients and employees
- Enhance community image
Give your employees a benefit they’ll use everday (and give yourself a break on taxes)
Commuter checks are tax-free vouchers your employees can use toward any HRT bus service, ferry, or vanpool. The best part is, you can now provide Commuter Checks as a pre-tax salary reduction, company benefit, incentive, or bonus.
Commuter checks offer real benefits. They give employees more and cost employers less than a comparable salary or bonus. Plus, commuter checks can improve employee morale, reduce absenteeism and turnover, solve parking problems and make benefit packages environmentally friendly.

What else can Traffix do for employers?
- Transportation needs assessment
- Survey employees to determine their transportation needs. Our surveys are an excellent means of matching employees for carpools and vanpools, and can flag candidates for telecommuting and variable work schedules.
- Analyze the data
- Analyze and compile survey results into a custom company profile.
- Provide recommendations
- Develop an employee transportation proposal and help select the best transportation alternatives for your company or military command.
- Help establish an Employee Transportation Coordinator (ETC)
- Will work closely with your company’s employee ETC to coordinate a transportation program that’s mutually beneficial for your company and its employees. TRAFFIX will promote, implement and maintain customized employee transportation options including: ride matching, the Guaranteed Ride Program, van leasing, preferential parking recommendations, transportation alternatives and a transit benefit program.
- Monitor and evaluate the progress
- TRAFFIX can monitor and evaluate employee transportation programs, updating them as necessary.
- Establishment of Telework Programs
- You may qualify to receive up to $35,000 in government reimbursement by allowing a few employees to work from home at least two days a week. This program is brought to you by Telework!VA.
