Humber College
OP-16: Employee Commute Modal Split

Institution's employees (faculty, staff, and administrators) commute to and from campus using more sustainable options such as walking, bicycling, vanpooling or carpooling, taking public transportation, riding motorcycles or scooters, riding a campus shuttle, or a combination of these options. Employees who live on campus should be included in the calculation based on how they get to and from their workplace.

This credit applies to all institutions.

Institutions earn the maximum of 3 points for this credit by having all employees use alternative modes of transportation for getting to and from campus.   Incremental points are available based on the percentage of employees that use alternative modes.  For example, an institution for which 50 percent of employees use alternative modes and the other 50 percent drive alone would earn 1.5 points (half of the available points for this credit).
