Will companies compensate workers for having to pay congestion pricing just to get to work??

  Why? Do they pay you back for living two hours away, or driving an expensive gas guzzler that gets 5 mpg?

    In a way, yes since a local employee will get higher salary than a remote worker. It could cost some people $40 a day just to get into and out of work. What will happen if you don’t compensate is people come to the office late and leave early to avoid the pricing, resulting in a loss of productivity.

      > In a way, yes since a local employee will get higher salary than a remote worker. But you're asking for the local employees to have their entirely variable commute costs covered. That's very different. If I want to helicopter to work for $2k a day, should work cover it? If not, why is wanting to drive in a city with robust public transit options any different? People leaving work early is a fixable discipline issue.
