Uber for Business helped Eataly launch an employee commute program providing a $100 weekly stipend to employees to use toward rides with Uber. It was part of Eataly’s formal Hero Program for essential workers, and hundreds of employees across the US and Canada had access to it. The company worked with Uber to set geolocation boundaries for the trips and sent its staff members details on how to take advantage of the program.
“Uber for Business gave us the ability to provide a cost-efficient solution for our employees while also helping to practice social distancing,” adds Borri.
The program was an immediate success and resulted in:
- Improved employee morale and productivity
- Continuity for the grocery and prepared food parts of their business
One of Eataly’s Los Angeles employees commented: “Thank you again for these wonderful benefits including the Uber commute program. I really appreciate them, and they are making a huge difference.”
