Why Commutes Matter
Costly Commutes:
Today, US workers on average spend about 19% of their annual income on commuting.

Longer Commutes: On average commuters added 20 minutes per week to their commutes compared to a decade ago.

Bad Commutes: An estimated 23% of workers have quit jobs over commute pain, while upwards of 60% of job seekers don’t apply due to perceived bad commutes. 

Employer-Led Commute Programs Offer Solutions:
Improving commutes addresses business needs. A key finding in Get There Oregon’s 2023 employer listening sessions was that employers see equipping employees to use commute options as a useful strategy for addressing top organizational priorities and serving business needs.
