A recent survey revealed that a significant 76% of respondents prefer commuter benefits from their employers, primarily subsidized public transport. This desire reflects shifting commuting patterns post-pandemic, where many avoid peak travel times and work remotely. With 63% utilizing public transport, these benefits could help boost in-office attendance, especially among younger workers, who predominantly favor hybrid working. Additionally, two-thirds believe that employers should assist with commuting costs if they mandate office attendance. The study, part of HSL's ongoing research into urban mobility trends, suggests potential future cooperation between businesses and transportation planners.
Seventy-six percent of respondents said they would prefer receiving a commuter benefit from their employer, typically in the form of subsidised public transport.
Employers looking to increase in-office attendance might find travel support a key incentive, said Mari Flink, Director of HSL's Market Division.
Two-thirds of all respondents believed that if employers mandate a minimum number of office days, they should also help cover commuting costs.
Among respondents under 30, 73% said they favour hybrid work. Of these, 43% preferred working mostly from the office, while nearly a third leaned toward remote work.
