City and County of San Francisco Employee Programs

SF Environment offers a variety of commuter programs to City and County of San Francisco (CCSF) employees. Our goal is to reduce traffic congestion, improve air quality, and help you save time and money on your commute. 


PROGRAMS

Commuter Benefits: If you ride transit or vanpool, enroll in the Pre-Tax Commuter Benefits Program and start saving money on your commute costs! 

Emergency Ride Home: The Emergency Ride Home program provides a free ride home in case of unexpected personal emergencies for City and County of San Francisco employees.

Rideshare: Sharing the ride with just one other person can cut your commuting costs in half. We can help match you with others who want to share a ride to the same destination.

CityCycle: Through the CityCycle program, CCSF departments can sign up to receive a free bicycle, helmet, u-lock, front/rear lights, and limited maintenance plan. We encourage employees to use a bicycle for their work-related errands.

Telecommuting: The City’s Telecommuting Program allows eligible departments and employees the opportunity to perform their work from designated areas at home during regular work hours and days. City employees can access information on the policy and obtain an application packet at the Department of Human Resources website. For additional questions about the Telecommuting Program, please contact TelecommutingProgram@sfgov.org.

Carshare: If you want the convenience of a car, but without the hassle and cost of owning, caring for and parking a car in the Bay Area - consider carsharing. Carsharing companies offer all sizes and types of vehicles throughout the area for you to reserve and use when you need it. Insurance, gas and maintenance included.
