Your commute, but better
When you’re starting a new job, there’s a lot to think about – and one thing that’s always near the top of the list is the commute.
How long will it take to get to work? Which route will you take? How much will it cost?
Well, there’s a way for these things to get a lot easier (and cheaper).
With Workwise, you get two free 4-week travel passes and a third at half price. That’s across bus, train, and tram in the West Midlands.
In other words, we take care of your commute for the first few weeks, so you can concentrate on what really matters – getting prepared and settling into your new job.
Let’s get started
Congratulations on your exciting career move (and on coming to the right place for travel discounts).
Everything about Workwise is designed to make your life easier, right from the moment you apply. That’s why the online application is pretty straightforward.
Just make sure you have the following ready: a passport-style photograph of yourself and proof of your job offer or increased hours.
We’ll need to check these things as Workwise is available exclusively for residents who are either:
- starting a new job (earning £30,000 or less and working more than 16 hours)
- increasing their working hours to 16 or more per week
- or have been receiving unemployment benefits
Something for everyone
We get it – everyone likes the sound of cheaper travel to work.
If you’re not eligible for Workwise, there still could be a great ticket offer to suit your needs.
Transport for West Midlands offers discounted travel passes for students, disabled people, and older people.
And our Direct Debit scheme is another great way to spread payments and save on the cost of your commute.
What are you waiting for? You’re working hard, reward yourself with cheaper travel.
