Emergency Ride Home

| Added: May, 2012

Some employees are reluctant to leave their car at home for fear of a personal emergency that requires them to leave work immediately, unexpected overtime or are stranded by a carpool driver.

For employees who commute by transit, carpool, and/or cycling, an Emergency Ride Home provides a ride home, by taxi, carshare or fleet vehicle. The company establishes a policy and procedure, including qualifications, and eligibility.  Most people rarely use it, but when they do, this ‘safety net’ is greatly appreciated.  It is usually a low cost item that goes a long way with employees.

Download a sample policy and start offering this 'safety net' to your employees.
