Five years ago, Cascades announced a pilot project to encourage employees to switch to electric transportation. In addition to having access to charging stations at work, the 1,400 employees based in Kingsey Falls now had the possibility of receiving $2,000 in financial assistance for the purchase of an EV.
Today, the company makes a positive assessment with the program still in effect. More than 350 employees have switched as Cascades continues deployment across close to 75 locations across North America with approximately 10,000 employees.*
