Emergency Ride Home Program

Have an Emergency? ERH Takes You Home!

Do you vanpool, carpool, ride the bus, bicycle or walk to work at least two days a week? If so, have we got a great deal for you! The Emergency Ride Home Program is designed to take the anxiety out of leaving your car at home. You no longer have to worry about being stranded at work without a car when you have an emergency. Do you wonder "What if my child gets sick and I need to leave work?" or "What if I need to work unexpected overtime?" Well, worry no more... the Emergency Ride Home Program allows you up to eight taxi rides each year* in case of personal illness, family emergency or unexpected overtime.

*Certain restrictions apply.
