The leader of the program is called an Employee Transportation Coordinator (ETC). The ETC’s role is to engage employees with non-SOV commuting options such as riding public transit, carpooling, vanpooling, biking, walking, and more! This includes overseeing the company’s goals and plan management, organizing the company’s rideshare program, and assisting employees with commuting questions. The ETC works closely with the CTR Administrator at Everett Transit and often the employer’s Human Resources department to decide what options, goals, and rewards can be offered to participating employees.

Employers and property managers are eligible for a tax credit toward their Business & Occupation (B&O) Tax or Public Utility Tax (PUT) if they spend money on employee or tenant commuter benefits, amenities, and programs. Examples of qualified commuter benefits include ridesharing programs, public transportation benefits, and commuter amenities for walkers and bikers. Learn more about the program.

Resources and tools that support employees as they diversify their transportation methods and maximize their individual and community's wellness.

We welcome you to build a CTR program at your worksite that encourages alternative forms of transportation, even if you have less than 100 affected employees. If you would like more resources, please contact Alessandra Gonzalez to learn how you can participate.
