    Kudos on the Park & Pedal Employer Pledge, http://www.parkandpedal.org/corporate-partners/ . That offers appropriate principles that employers should aspire to.

    Imagine my surprise when a major local employer, which does have on-site showers, nonetheless does not provide them for use by bicycle commuters. (Well, they “provide” them — at a charge of several hundred dollars per year, bundled along with gym facilities etc. which many bicycle commuters probably don’t want since we get our exercise while commuting.) Compare Pledge bullet two, point 2.

    I’d rather not raise this with my HR office — it’s sensitive, criticizing the employer for doing too little. Could anyone from Park & Pedal assist/

    Employer is a major Boston organization. Employer links to the parkandpedal.org site and is even quoted in some Park and Pedal press releases. Feels a bit inconsistent for organization to endorse P&P in the press releases but not follow through on the benefits.
