At Rings & Things, we actively promote commuting alternatives through “Trippin’ to R&T” and the Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) program, using tools such as http://www.mycommute.org. We and our stellar Employee Transportation Coordinator, Selina Shehan (at center in the photo), have won a variety of awards for our commitment to “greening” our workers’ commutes.
If we could share a few highlights, they’d include these:
- January 2009: Selina Shehan and Rings & Things win a second “Way to Go!” Pinnacle award. The Pinnacle Award is given to just three employers in our state each year, based on innovative trip reduction strategies, ETC commitment and participation, continued enhancement of their CTR program and management support.
- September 2008: Rings & Things receives the Washington state Governor’s Award for Outstanding Achievement by a Voluntary Employer in the CTR program.
- January 2007: 2006 Pinnacle Award.
- September 2006: September All Star Coach, Selina Shehan.
From time to time we’ll share other tidbits about our efforts to make Rings & Things and our industry the greenest they can be. You might be surprised by some of what we say. Stay tuned to learn what I mean by this!
