Empowering the Workforce That Keeps the World Moving

In transportation, every second matters — and so does every benefit. Whether managing fleets, transit agencies, or airline crews, HR teams face the challenge of supporting a workforce that's mobile, unionized, and constantly in motion. Benefits Reimagined simplifies transportation employee benefits administration with automation built for mobility, compliance, and care. From commuter incentives to health and wellness programs, our SAP-native platform ensures every worker — driver, pilot, or technician — receives fair, timely, and compliant benefits. With union contract logic, real-time payroll sync, and mobile access, we help organizations improve retention, strengthen satisfaction, and reduce administrative strain.

One Driver, Five Moments Between Dispatch and Payday

Follow Jane Doe — an over-the-road driver under Local 89, three weeks on the road at a time — from enrolling on her phone at a truck stop to a commuter credit, a telehealth visit and a five-year safety reward.

Meeting the Needs of Employees Always on the Move

Transportation employees don't work at desks — they're on the road, in the air, or in the field. Traditional systems fail to serve such a mobile workforce effectively. Benefits Reimagined ensures accessibility anywhere. Through mobile apps and self-service portals, employees can view benefits, file claims, and verify eligibility on the go. HR teams gain live visibility into participation and plan status, reducing friction between field staff and administrators. By bringing benefits access to mobile devices, employers keep workers informed, engaged, and connected — no matter their location.

What works from the road

  • The mobile app carries every employee screen: enrollment, life events, ID cards, claims, documents, tickets and Athena
  • Push deep-links — 'your enrollment closes in 3 days' opens the exact step, resumable where the driver left off
  • Photo upload of a marriage or birth certificate, read by IntelliVerify in seconds; no scanner, no terminal visit
  • Kiosk mode for crew rooms and terminals; SMS and email through the Communication HUB for anyone without the app

Why it matters

Jane Doe enrolls at a truck stop in Amarillo — and HR sees it before she pulls out.

HR's live view shows participation by terminal, local and job type as it happens, not after the deadline.

Rules of Transportation Benefits Administration

The transportation policy pack ships with these rules configured — contract-driven, mobile-first and reconciled to the fund. The same engine runs the construction, manufacturing and logistics and healthcare packs — see the cross-industry hub.

RuleWhat it means on this pageWhy it holds
The local is the rule setTeamsters, ATU, IAM, pilots' and flight attendants' associations — each with its plan menu, contribution formula, waiting period and retirement plan, selected by job type and pay code.Transfers switch agreements on the effective date.
For fund locals, the plan is the fundMultiemployer health-and-welfare and pension trusts: eligibility is a contribution-hour bank crossing a quarterly threshold; employer remittance is reconciled to hours and eligibility.'Sent' is not 'covered' until the three agree.
Portability is a field, not a phone callReciprocal transfers between locals carry the hours-bank year to date and contribution rate on the record.A driver who moves locals keeps what was earned.
Hours of service, from dispatchSplit shifts, on-call and over-the-road hours count; part-time ramp and variable-hour staff are measured per class with a visible countdown.The roster never decides eligibility.
Commuter benefits reconcile monthlyPre-tax transit and parking up to the monthly limit, vanpool and shuttle reimbursement, EV and bike incentives on the Flexible Spending Framework, reconciled to payroll and vendors.No orphaned balances at year-end.

Core Capabilities of Our Transportation Benefits Platform

Union logic, commuter automation, wellness, retro calculation, mobile self-service and SAP-native integration — the six things a fleet's benefits platform has to do from the road.

1

Union Logic Engine

Applies contract-specific rules for eligibility, contributions, and waiting periods — per local, job type and pay code — including hour-bank eligibility, per-hour contributions to multiemployer funds and reciprocal transfers, with every decision cited to the article that made it.

Commuter Benefit Automation

Automates pre-tax transit, parking, and reimbursement workflows — EV charging and bike-to-work incentives included — reconciled to payroll and the vendor.

Pre-taxReconciled

Wellness Integration

Supports telehealth, gym reimbursements, and mental health programs — reachable from the app, with incentives applied to the deduction automatically.

Generic Benefits Software vs. a Platform Built for a Workforce in Motion

Most benefits software assumes a desk, a single agreement and a commute short enough not to matter. Transportation has none of those.

Meet Athena: the Assistant Riding Along

Drivers, operators and crews ask their benefits questions at rest stops, between runs and after a night shift. Athena answers from the employee's own record, the local's agreement and the plan documents — by voice or text, in English or Spanish — with a source, and never enrolls anyone.

  • "Which plan am I on now that I'm over-the-road?" — the agreement selected by the new pay code, the plan menu and what re-opened
  • "Can I change my transit amount this month?" — yes, any month, up to the limit — with the deduction shown per paycheck
  • "Is telehealth covered while I'm out of state?" — the plan's telehealth benefit, cited, with the tap-to-call button
  • "Why is my deduction different this week?" — the safety-milestone credit or the ratified rate, cited to the policy or the article
  • For administrators — "which Local 89 drivers haven't enrolled, by terminal?" — the list and a Communication HUB nudge
How Athena grounds every answer
Athena Mobile · rest stop · 22:40
I moved from the yard to OTR last month. Which plan am I on?
Athena · from your recordYour pay code changed to DRV-OTR on November 1, so Local 89's agreement applies: the PPO Union Plan at $42 a week, with the multi-employer pension. Your yard elections were re-offered — you have until November 30 to confirm or change them. Want to see the plan side by side with your old one?

And I don't need the transit pass anymore — can I stop it?
Athena · from your electionsYes. Commuter elections change any month; I can end the $315 transit deduction from December 1. Your November pass is already paid. If you park at the terminal on home weeks, a parking election is available up to the monthly limit.

Improved Retention

Link rewards, wellness, and commuting benefits to employee engagement — milestones paid the week they are earned, measured against turnover.

Adapts easily to fleets, transit networks, and logistics providers — a new terminal or an acquired carrier is a rule set, not an implementation.

Four Stories From the Road — and One on Another HRIS

Every story runs on the same engine, enrollment flow and audit trail; only the transportation pack's rules apply.

over-the-road

Enrolled at a truck stop

Jane Doe's pay code changed to OTR; Local 89's agreement applies, elections were re-offered, and she finished enrollment two days later in Tulsa — step 3 of 5 saved on her phone.

Contract-driven, resumable, logged.
fund local

The hour bank crosses the threshold

A technician under IAM 2323 reaches the quarterly contribution-hour threshold; the eligibility window opens as an event, employer remittance is reconciled to hours, and the fund statement agrees.

No classic open enrollment — and no dispute.
transit

Split shift, measured

A transit operator's split-shift hours from dispatch count as hours of service; the ATU track's 30-day wait and plan menu apply from the first eligible date.

Hours, not routes.
dispatcher

Commuter benefits that reconcile

A dispatcher's $315 transit pass, vanpool reimbursement and EV credit run on one election record and reconcile to payroll and the vendor — a clean year-end balance.

Every deduction accounted for.
SAP SuccessFactors · Workday · UKG · ADP · Dayforce · third-party payroll

The same carrier on ADP or UKG

A carrier whose drivers are paid through ADP sends the same pay codes, locals and dispatch hours. The transportation pack applies identically, fund remittances reconcile the same way, and the BR Intelligence enrollment-by-terminal view is the same screen.
