How to calculate employee transport costs
A shuttle quote alone is not the full cost. Compare options covering the same people, hours and service level.

Set a common basis
Define employees covered, service days, shift times, sites and analysis period before requesting quotes.
Include all cost items
For shuttles: vehicles, drivers, distance, waiting time, coordination and changes. For allowances: payments and administration. For in-house fleets: vehicles, maintenance, insurance and staff.
- Monthly cost = fixed costs + variable costs + coordination.
- Cost per covered employee = total cost / employees actually covered.
- Cost per ride = total cost / rides completed in the same period.
Test changes
Recalculate if headcount, sites or schedules change. Ask what is included and what causes a price revision.
A useful comparison makes its assumptions visible.
