GMTMA Smart Workplaces Awards

Executive Director Kastrenakes and GMTMA’Board President, Jack Kanarek honored businesses present at the event with the prestigious New Jersey Smart Workplaces (NJSW) award. The awards program is a partnership of the North Jersey Transportation Planning Association and GMTMA and recognizes employers for offering outstanding commuter services to their employees. “GMTMA applauds these employers for providing programs that encourage more sustainable, environmentally-friendly commute options,” said Kastrenakes.

Kanarek remarked on “how impressive it is that so many awardees, even those at the Platinum level, continue to add more options for their employees.”  Electric vehicle charging stations, bike tool stations, and expanded shuttles were noted as examples.

Some other qualifying activities include: regularly promoting commute options to staff, hosting on-site commuter events, providing transit schedules, forming carpools or vanpools, offering teleworking, offering flextime, providing bicycle racks, and offering a pre-tax transit program.

If you think your business qualifies for the NJSW designation, please contact us at tma@tma.org, we would be happy to help. You can also go to http://www.gmtma.org/pg-employers-nj-smart-workplaces.php to register.
