Caravan Employer Partners

Across Iowa, employers are facing growing pressure to attract and retain skilled workers. At the same time, today’s workforce is being strained by rising fuel prices, vehicle maintenance costs, and long-distance commutes. Providing employees with options for efficient and reliable transportation is becoming an opportunity for businesses in Iowa.

By supporting a vanpool program, your organization can:

• Expand recruiting reach for new talent.
• Stand out as a high-quality employer.
• Strengthen employee retention.

Partnering with Caravan improves the reliability, affordability and quality of your team’s commute.

Why Sponsor a Vanpool Program?

Improve Productivity and Reliability. Consistent, dependable commutes mean that employees arrive on time with less stress.

Show Employees You Care. Offering commuter support is a unique way to demonstrate that your company values employees’ time, finances, and well-being.

Support Sustainability Goals. For organizations focused on environmental responsibility, vanpooling is a practical and measurable step toward sustainability targets.

Payroll Tax Savings. As a Qualified Transportation Fringe Benefit, you will reduce payroll taxes for your organization, and the participating employees, by excluding the cost of the program from their taxable wages.
