Some creative employers have developed ways to reward those employees who share their commute , and especially those who use carpools , which are not eligible for TransitChek. In most cases, in-house promotion of the merchant involved is enough to warrant reciprocal services, although they may require the employer to pay a small fee. Outside of the staff time necessary to set up the initial program, this option is relatively easy and inexpensive to implement , and is viewed very favorably by employees.
