Splash into Car"pooling"

It’s obvious that carpooling helps the environment, but it has also been proven that it benefits the employer and employee in many aspects as well. Surveys conducted have proven that employees who carpool usually tend to have a more positive attitude and less stress when at work. This results in more work productivity and less absentees for the employer.
So, perhaps you don’t think you will be more pleasant and more prone to have more work done but it’s only logical to assume that carpooling limits drivers on the road, requires less parking spaces, saves you gas money and can make your ride much quicker with the use of an HOV lane.
To help encourage carpooling many employers offer incentive programs, which may include reduced parking rate or free parking, or rewards such as prizes or drawings. Employers who offer these programs and meet certain requirements are put in National Standard of Excellence classification designated by the DOT, and the EPA, which recognizes these employers as the best places to work for commuters.
You may be thinking well how do I get a carpool partner(s)? It’s really easy and can be done over the computer through Commuter Connections. This communication outlet will match you online through the CAP (commuter assistance program) with somebody in your area or set up a carpool within your complex or subdivision.
In the future I hope you consider carpooling to benefit your attitude, work productivity, wallet and most of all, the environment, which all of us use and should be conscious of.
