The purpose of this guidebook is to help transportation agencies increase the effectiveness of their commuter benefits and outreach programs. Specifically, the guidebook is designed to help agencies more effectively promote commuter benefits to employers and provide employers with technical assistance for setting up commuter benefits programs. It also discusses ways in which agency programs can be made more attractive to employers. Finally, it provides information on the specifics of commuter benefits tax law and regulations (including a history of commuter benefits in Appendix A, tax examples in Appendix B, and a list of states showing their tax treatment of commuter benefits in Appendix C). This guidebook is designed for transportation agencies or organizations that promote commuter benefits to employers. Such agencies or organizations can include transit agencies, regional or local commuter assistance organizations, transportation management associations/organizations (TMAs/TMOs), and vanpool providers. |
