ORCA Seasonal Passport

Do you employ seasonal workers? Metro's Business Programs is excited to introduce our ORCA Seasonal Passport pilot program!

This new transit pass is an affordable way to attract interns, seasonal, and temporary workers in a competitive job market. Whether you're hiring for the holiday season or the tourist rush, the ORCA Seasonal Passport can help you recruit the employees you need.

How it works

ORCA Seasonal Passport is only available through employers with 5 or more seasonal employees. For employers with less than 5 employees, check out ORCA Business Choice.

  • Employers must cover all seasonal employees but can exclude anyone who is already receiving transportation benefits from another job.
  • Companies can share up to 50% of costs with employees.
  • Choose a contract length from 2 to 6 months.
  • Contracts start on the first of the month, so sign up at least 15 days before the month starts to allow for processing time.

Pricing

The cost is between $4 and $40 per month per employee depending on location.

Program coverage

The ORCA Seasonal Passport covers unlimited rides on the same great transit network as our annual pass spanning King, Kitsap, Pierce and Snohomish counties.
