Employee transport
Employee transport without adding another fixed route — the inOneCar app
A bus works well for the main, stable directions. inOneCar complements transport where employees commute from many towns, on different shifts or in smaller groups — using the empty seats in cars that already drive to the plant every day.

Transport cost
Transport costs the most where a route is hard to fill well
Another direction
A new town or an extra group of employees often means another bus line — a fixed cost regardless of how full it is. In practice, 30–60% of seats can run empty.
Another shift
Transport also has to match shift start and end times. No commute for a 5am, 2pm or 10pm shift drives up absences and turnover.
Low occupancy
Not every direction has enough employees to justify a separate line — and every new carrier contract means a higher rate and less flexibility.
Some of these needs can be covered differently — by using the cars of employees who already drive to the plant.
Commute time
Transport is provided. But the commute can still be a problem.
An employee bus covers the whole route. For some employees that means several stops, an earlier start and a longer ride than a more direct route would take.
A shared ride can be more direct
inOneCar matches people heading in a similar direction at a similar time. For some employees that means getting to work without riding the whole bus route and stopping at every stop along the way.
Choosing a model
Choosing a transport model: not every employee has to commute the same way
Employee bus
For the main, stable directions
- a large group of employees,
- a similar route and working hours,
- stable, predictable occupancy,
- the cost of the run is shared across many passengers.
Collective transport works well where many people need the same connection.
inOneCar shared rides
For smaller and more scattered needs
- many towns and smaller groups,
- different shift times,
- employees who already commute by car,
- directions that are hard to cover with a dedicated line.
Shared rides cover needs where a dedicated fixed route is hard to justify.
Hybrid model
Combine both solutions
- a bus on the main directions,
- shared rides on the rest,
- coverage for other shifts and smaller groups,
- fewer transport "blind spots".
The bus covers the main directions. Shared rides fill in the remaining towns, other shifts and smaller groups of employees.
It's not about replacing one type of transport with another. It's about matching how each group of employees commutes.
Empty seats
Use the cars that already drive to the plant
Some employees drive to the plant every day in their own cars, with empty seats left over. inOneCar connects people heading a similar way so they can ride together instead of separately. That's corporate carpooling.

Shift work
Direction is only half the problem. Time matters just as much.
For shift work, transport has to match not only where an employee lives, but also when their shift starts and ends. Shared rides can complement transport where a dedicated run for a given time or direction is hard to justify.
Employees use the app according to their own schedule and find people heading a similar way at a similar time.

How transport is organized affects not only company costs, but also the real accessibility of the workplace.

One programme
The employee organizes the ride. The company sees the whole programme.
App for employees
An employee adds their route and working hours, and the algorithm matches them with someone heading the same way on the same shift.
Panel for the company
The company sees users, activity and rides, plus cost, attendance and CO₂ reduction in real time.
inOneCar support
We set up the panel with locations, shifts and the top-up policy, then help onboard employees and activate the programme.
Before you add another route
First, check which employees can ride together
A potential analysis shows where employees live, what shift times look like, and on which directions shared rides can complement current transport.
Commute structure
We gather information about the plant, shifts and where employees live.
Shared route potential
We check which employees can realistically ride together.
Recommended transport model
We show where a bus, and where shared rides, make more sense.
For the employee
A good commute can be a benefit too
A company can combine shared rides with an incentive programme and reward employee activity.

Frequently asked questions about employee transport with inOneCar
Does inOneCar replace employee buses?
It doesn't have to. For many companies the best solution can be a hybrid model: a bus covers the main directions, and shared rides cover the rest.
Is a shared ride faster than a bus?
Not always. For some employees, though, a shared ride can mean a more direct route and fewer stops along the way.
Does inOneCar work with shift work?
Yes. Employees can organize shared rides around their own shift times.
What if employees live in many different towns?
That's exactly when it's worth analysing the potential for shared routes. Smaller groups from similar directions can organize rides without needing a dedicated connection for every town.
Does the company need to provide cars?
No. The programme uses the cars of employees who already commute to work and want to share their empty seats.
Can we use buses and inOneCar at the same time?
Yes. The hybrid model is one of the programme's main uses — the platform cost itself is in the corporate pricing.
