December 31, 2024. Effective May 1, 2018, CalHR implemented the Bicycle Commuter Program (Program). Through the Program, the State of California voluntarily provides a taxable benefit to eligible state employees. The Program encourages employees to consider bicycle commuting as a means of active transportation.
As a reminder, the HR Manual section 1425 – Bicycle Commuter Program requires non-CalATERS departments to complete and electronically submit the Bicycle Commuter Benefit Program Report for the previous calendar year to CalHR (Travelmanager@calhr.ca.gov) by January 31.
