Commuter Check Program:
 Commuter Check is a special voucher used to purchase Bay Area transit tickets or pay for qualified vanpool costs. Commuter Checks come in six denominations: $20, $25, $30, $35, $45 and $50. Federal laws (Internal Revenue Code 132(f)), provide significant tax savings to both employers and employees for using public transit and qualified vanpools through programs such as Commuter Check.
The Metropolitan Transportation Commission launched the Bay Area Commuter Check program in 1991 in partnership with the Commuter Check Services Corp.
A 1994 survey of Bay Area employees receiving Commuter Checks found that about a third (31 percent) of the employees who receive Commuter Checks increased their use of transit.
The survey also showed that a large majority (79 percent) of respondents noted improved opinions of their employer as a result of receiving Commuter Checks, a third (35 percent) noted reduced stress from not driving to work or driving less often, and a third (33 percent) said job satisfaction had improved. Improvements in on-time arrival and productivity were also noted.
