Martin is pleased to introduce Customer Carpool; a company-specific ride share service that helps employees get to work during the surge of rising gas prices. With the average gas price topping $4.54 a gallon, some employees fear losing their jobs by not being able to drive to work. And, for those with long commutes, some opt to not show up to work at all causing manufacturers to shut down or limit production. Customer Carpool enables companies to ease the pain at the pump while ensuring employees show up for the workday.
