Lancaster, PA - Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing has been named one of the 2021 Best Workplaces for Commuters for offering employees exceptional commuter benefits.

Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing’s site in Lancaster, PA, is among a select group of workplaces in the United States that have achieved the Best Workplaces for Commuters National Standard of Excellence by providing an array of commuter benefits, resulting in at least 14 percent of their employee base not driving alone to work within a 12-month period. Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing offers employees several commuter benefit options, including:

  • Carpool matching program
  • Quarterly incentive for green commutes
  • Partial subsidy for bus commuters
  • Priority parking for carpoolers
  • Covered bike parking and bike repair station

“Eurofins is one of the top employers in the nation offering high-level commuter benefits to their employees,” said Julie Bond, Program Manager, Best Workplaces for Commuters. “Eurofins made the list because they offer transportation choices that include carpool/vanpool programs, bicycle facilities, quarterly incentives for green commutes, subsidized bus fares, and telework options for non-laboratory employees and access to Emergency Ride Home programs. Eurofins gives its employees the support they need to get to and from work and be at their best before, during, and after their workday.”

“We are extremely proud to receive our 2021 Best Workplaces for Commuters national designation,” said Chrissy Leslie, Director of Pharmaceutical Finished Product Testing and Director of Sustainability, Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing. “This aligns with our sustainability program initiatives to encourage green commuting options for our employees in order to reduce our carbon footprint.”

The Best Workplaces for Commuters program offers designated organizations access to a range of support services to assess and promote non-driving commuting of employees, including organizational assessment and implementation tool-kits, web-based tools and webinars, staff training, and information exchange.

“The companies on this list recognize and embrace the beneficial outcomes commuter benefits have on their employees and the positive impact to the environment,” said Bond. “Excellent commuter benefit programs reward these companies not just with a national designation, but buoys workplace productivity, customer loyalty, and brand recognition in an increasingly competitive marketplace.”
