Out of the box and ready to use, you can share Get There Connect with your employees to help them find and use transportation options.
With Get There Connect, your employees can:

- Find others going their way and share the ride in a carpool or vanpool.
- Track stats like money saved, calories burned, and reduced carbon emissions.
- Join challenges and earn local rewards, as available.
If you have employees who work in Oregon, your workplace can sign up for a free, custom employer network with Get There Oregon. Organizations of all sizes and types (e.g., for profit, nonprofit, state agencies, etc.) can start one. Employer Networks allow employers to offer commuter incentives and host challenges, plus track your organization’s savings and carbon emissions reductions.
