Alternative forms of transportation include commuting by carpool, vanpool or bus, or by bicycle, or walking. Regular employees that use an alternative commute mode at least 80% of the normally scheduled work days during a pay period are eligible for the TDM Incentive in that pay period, which is an additional accrual of 0.62 hours of vacation for fulltime employees (prorated for part-time employees). This program is an honor program. Employees who regularly participate in the TDM Program can earn up to two additional vacation days per year. A regular TDM participant not commuting to work on a regular workday due to a holiday, vacation or sick day may count that day toward the 80% Incentive requirement. An employee on an alternative work schedule that reduces the number of days that he/she reports to work (e.g., a 9/80 schedule reduces the reporting days in a pay period from ten to nine) may credit the non-reporting day toward the 80% requirement. However, employees must use an alternative commute mode to be eligible and cannot qualify for the TDM Incentive based solely on an alternative work schedule.
