Employee Resources

The money to pay our salaries, and protects worker rights, and pays for roads and food inspection. It comes from taxes. We’ve all got to pay our fair share. NYC residents can get free tax advice, so can NY State residents who don’t live in NYC and so can New Jersey residents.

Gotta go in the middle of the day? The link below goet to to NYC’s official map of public bathrooms. The city’s tourist board also maintains a list, here, but it’s more Manhattan focused.

We’ve compiled a list of resources to help with immigration concerns, connect with support networks and helplines, and prepare for ICE scenarios.

The United Service Workers provides health, dental and retirement benefits for NYCSBUS mechanics and utility workers.

Through its Welfare and Benefit Funds, the ATU provides medical, dental and pension benefits for NYCBUS drivers and attendants.

NYCSBUS is a non-profit corporation. Not only does that mean that none of the executives have a boat or a Maserati, it also means that if an employee borrows or borrowed money for college for ourselves or our children some of that debt can be forgiven. It’s complicated, but it’s free money that we can invest in ourselves and our children.

NYCSBUS’s unionized employees have their own retirement plans. Non-unionized employees are eligible to save taxes by contributing to our 401k. NYCSBUS automatically adds 3% of everyone’s pay to the 401k and if you put some of your money into the program NYCSBUS will match your contribution, dollar-for-dollar, up to 6% of your salary. Sign up in Paycom or contact HR.

Some of the kids we help get to school… are ours. If you have kids, NYC Public Schools has information about how to support them in their education.

Many buildings in NYC have opportunities for people with a variety of incomes to live in those properties at a price they can afford. These deals are awarded by lottery. Click below to learn more.

NYCSBUS Employees can pay for MTA tickes with pre-tax savings, reducing the cost of taking the bus or subway. Non-union employees, sign up in Paycom. Union employees, email HR@NYCSBUS.com and we’ll sign you up. After all, even though they are not yellow, MTA does run a pretty good service.

Through the ATU bus drivers and attendants have earned the right to claim unemployment benefits when they do not have work during school recesses.

OK, let’s be honest. Sometimes little kids, like when they are riding on the bus or when their guardians or parents are complaining, they can be difficult. But our own kids never are :) We love our own kids. If you have a child in Kindergarten, First or Second Grade NYC will help you save for college.
