Bay Area Commuter Benefits Program Compliance Reminder
Did you know it is mandatory for employers with 50 or more full-time employees in the Bay Area to register with the Bay Area Commuter Benefits Program?
Even if an employer offers commuter benefits, to be in compliance with the Bay Area Air District’s Regulation 14, Rule 1, they are required to enroll in the program and update their registration annually. Employers can choose from five commuter benefit options:
- Pre-tax transit benefits
- Employer-provided subsidy for transit or vanpooling
- Employer-provided transit (such as shuttles)
- Telework one or more days a week
- A custom plan that includes other modes like bicycling or walking, possibly combined with promotions that encourage alternates to driving alone and more
Enrollment in the Bay Area Commuter Benefits Program is easy and free by visiting 511.org. You can call 510-285-3182 or email the team at commuterbenefits@511.org to get more information or confirm if your organization is registered.
