Offering recognition for innovative solutions to commuting challenges faced by employers and employees, Best Workplaces for Commuters^SM is a new public-private sector voluntary program advocating employee commuter benefits.

Established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), this program publicly recognizes employers whose commuter benefits reach the National Standard of Excellence. Providing commuter benefits helps employers address limited or expensive parking, reduce traffic congestion, improve employee recruiting and retention, and minimize the environmental impacts associated with drive-alone commuting. Participating companies earn the designation "Best Workplaces for Commuters^SM"—a mark of excellence for environmentally and employee-friendly organizations.
