Cost and How It Works

 

FEE

The Commuter Challenge workplace participation fee is still only $1.00/ employee (i.e. 300 employees = $300). Your support allows us to continue to host and maintain the National Commuter Challenge program and software. A minimum fee of $50 applies to smaller workplaces.

Big thanks to Green Action Centre and their sponsors for covering the cost of the program for all towns and cities in Manitoba.

Thanks to The Town of Banff for promoting the program to workplaces in Banff.

Thanks to The Town of Moncton – Ville de Dieppe – Town of Riverview for promoting the program in their regions.

Commuter Challenge:

  • is a week-long event during Canadian Environment Week (June 2 – 8, 2024)
  • is a friendly competition between Canadian cities and workplaces
  • encourages Canadians to leave their cars at home
  • rewards walking, cycling, carpooling/ride-sharing, taking transit and telecommuting
  • celebrates active and sustainable transportation
  • is locally hosted by City Coordinators who support workplaces

How it works

  • You register your workplace before the Commuter Challenge week (June 2 – 8, 2024) and yourself any time before the end of the challenge.
  • You walk, cycle, carpool, take transit or telecommute during the event week
  • To be included in the final results you need to make at least one sustainable commute during Commuter Challenge week; of course you can commute sustainably every day :-)
  • You log your commute by first signing-in. Login once your workplace is registered or sign-in as an individual/unaffiliated.
  • Registration and logging will be accepted until Saturday, June 16, 2024
  • On your log page, you will see your impacts adding up
  • As a workplace coordinator, you will see all of your workplace results and impacts.
  • Tracked impacts are emission reduction, calorie consumption, distance and fuel cost savings
  • Results are updated daily so you can see which workplaces and cities have the highest percentage of healthy commuters
