Rideshare week is October 7 through 11. Its purpose is to encourage workers in the Inland Empire to find green ways to make the commute to work.
LLU Health employees who pledge to carpool, walk, bike, or ride the bus at least one day next week will be entered in a drawing to win prizes including hotel stays, gift cards, furniture, and tickets.
Make your pledge online at www.ie511.org/rideshare-week.aspx. Or download the form below the story and return it to the LLU Health rideshare department via fax at extension 53030 or intercampus mail.
The form must be returned by October 18.
Rideshare week is a program of Riverside County Transportation Commission and the San Bernardino Associated Governments.
LLU Health offers year-round rideshare incentives to full-time benefited employees. Employees who reside in the same household and carpool are eligible for preferred parking if available.
Incentives for full-time benefited employees:
• Carpooling: Employees who carpool at least three times per week each month will each receive vouchers for 10 gallons of gas per month starting after three months. During the first three months, each employee is eligible for $2 per day to use at Starter Bros.
• Biking: Employees who bike to work at least three days per week (or two for employees who work three 12-hour shifts) will receive a $60 tax-free bonus each quarter.
• Riding the bus: Employees who ride the bus can receive a $25 subsidy per month toward their fare.
• Walking (university only): Employees who walk will receive a $60 tax-free bonus each quarter.
To find carpooling partners, register at www.ridematch.info for a list of employees who reside nearby.
