These methods help to mitigate traffic congestion and provide for cleaner air through reduced auto emissions.<\/p>\n

The awards recognize employers who have initiated, enhanced, or expanded programs, benefits, policies, and amenities to encourage employees to telework and\/or use commuting alternatives such as transit, carpooling\/vanpooling, and bicycling\/walking to the worksite. These methods not only help to attract and retain employees but also reduce the number of cars on area roads and provide for cleaner air.<\/p>\n

Nominations for the 2025 awards were accepted through January 31, 2025.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle”
