Grants & Incentives

$5K telework incentive offered to employers
King County will reward organizations up to $5,000 for implementing a telework policy. The size of the incentive is based on the number of employees who telework a minimum of one day a week during the first three months. Policy commitment is for at least 12 months and requires documentation on the number of employees teleworking and the commute trips reduced. Employers should have more than 20 employees and provide at least a 50 percent transit commute subsidy. Contact Ref Lindmark at 206-684-1104 or Ref.Lindmark@metrokc.gov for more information about the incentive.

Commuter Challenge, as part of its ongoing work with King County Metro to provide assistance to employers interested in developing and/or implementing telework programs, provides free consulting services to eligible worksites within King County. Contact Steve Gerritson at 206-389-8656 or sgerritson@commuterchallenge.org for more information.
