Information distribution requirements
The following guidelines describe the minimum information distribution requirements.
  1. Worksite program summary information to all employees: To satisfy program summary information requirements and satisfy completion of program implementation, an employer must demonstrate that they have distributed:
    • One written piece that summarizes all the approved program elements in your CTR program to all affected employees at least once per year. In lieu of the distribution of a written program, your company could choose to distribute information electronically. Should you decide to use this method, please maintain a printed sample of this information in your files.
    • Information about any new element to all affected employees as it is introduced.
  2. Provide information to employees at the time of hire: New employees must receive the written general program information piece at the time of hire.
  3. Other information on alternatives to SOV commuting: At least once a year, the employer must provide information on alternatives to SOV commuting to employees. This information can be a single program element (i.e. transit subsidy), single mode choice (i.e. carpooling) or general commute information distributed through means other than the general program summary noted above (i.e. transportation event, e-mail).

If you have any questions about these guidelines, please contact your Employer Transportation Representative for assistance.
