EMERGENCY RIDE HOME

Get a free ride home.

If you use alternative transportation to commute to work, you're eligible for (2) FREE rides home a year in an emergency—no matter where you live! No mileage cap, no price cap. Use Uber/Lyft, bus, rental car, etc. 

This program serves commuters who are regular carpoolers, vanpoolers, bus riders, bicyclists, walkers and telecommuters. It also includes employees who use a combination of these methods. 

Use this service if:

  • You or a family member is ill
  • You or a family member has a crisis
  • Your boss asks you to work longer than your regular shift without sufficient notice
  • Your carpool driver had to leave early
  • Your bicycle breaks or is stolen

Your membership provides your employees with options that make it easier to use healthy, environmentally friendly, and money-saving transportation.
