SAMTRANS CORRESPONDENCE As of 12-11-2020
SAMTRANS CORRESPONDENCE as of 12-11-2020 December 8, 2020 The Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor, State of California State Capitol, Suite 1173 Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear Governor Newsom: Bay Area transit systems continue to struggle in the face of dramatically reduced ridership and revenues due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This challenge was already the most significant crisis in the history of public transportation, and now it has persisted far longer than any of us would have predicted. Since the beginning, our workers have been on the front lines, doing their jobs as essential workers, responsible for providing other front line workers with a way to safely travel to and from essential jobs. Now that the availability of a vaccine is on the horizon, we are proud to echo the attached call from the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU). Specifically, we urge you to work to ensure that transit, paratransit, and school transportation workers are prioritized along with other essential workers to receive the vaccine following the critical need to vaccinate the State’s healthcare workers. Even with reduced ridership, an average of 8 million monthly riders continue to depend on Bay Area transit services. These riders are the healthcare workers, grocery clerks, caregivers, emergency services personnel and others doing the critical work that has kept California functioning during the pandemic. They cannot continue to do so without access to reliable public transportation, and are therefore dependent on the health of the transit workers that serve them every day. Our agencies have worked hard to ensure the public health of riders and transit workers during this crisis. -

About This Toolkit
ABOUT THIS TOOLKIT As an employer, one of the most important jobs is ensuring that employees are content and challenged. Studies show that the flexibility offered by remote work programs improves employee satisfaction, retention, and even increases productivity. Plain and simple, remote work can make your job more efficient! It’s clear that remote work is much more than a growing trend – it’s a proven management tool that lessens traffic congestion on Bay Area roadways, increases productivity, and helps retain skilled workers. Everyone benefits from a carefully directed remote work program. The best remote work programs begin with clear company policies and guidelines. Other important elements to consider incorporating into your remote work program include: An initial assessment program where employers and employees can determine whether this is a good fit for the employee and their work responsibilities Education and training for employees working remotely to learn how to communicate and collaborate with other employees, and how to manage time effectively while working from home Ongoing, regular communication and check-ins with managers and team members Company-provided equipment, including a laptop, to help your employees be more effective and efficient. Employers may also offer reimbursement for purchased equipment, high-speed internet, or cell phone offerings.
