Dentons extends partnership with Extraordinary to launch public transport benefit

We're always looking for smarter ways of working. That's why Dentons has partnered with Extraordinary to streamline how we deliver employee benefits, from gift cards to public transport savings.

Building on our initial partnership in relation to gift cards, we're now introducing a public transport salary sacrifice scheme for our people to help our team with the increasing cost of commuting and to make a positive difference for the environment. We will launch this initiative on 22 April to coincide with Earth Day.

Our people commuting to our Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch offices will be able to choose to fund their public transport costs from pre-tax income. By setting aside a portion of salary each pay cycle, employees can reduce their effective commuting costs by 30% or more while making a more sustainable travel choice. Sustainability shouldn't be a sacrifice. When barriers are removed, people can make better choices, for themselves and for the planet.

As part of the world's largest global law firm, we take our responsibility seriously. Supporting greener commuting for our people is one small but meaningful way of bringing our values to life by embedding sustainability into everyday working life, not just policy.

Chief Executive, Charles Spillane, said, "Partnering with Extraordinary to deliver benefits for our people is an exciting step forward for us to support our people when the cost of their commute is increasing. I'm confident this will make a real difference. We're encouraging our people to rethink how they commute, and this initiative creates a simple, practical way to do that."

"When one of the world's largest law firms chooses to offer pre-tax public transport to its people, it sets a standard" said Steven Zinsli, CEO of Extraordinary. "Dentons has shown that sustainability and financial wellbeing aren't competing priorities, they can be delivered in the same benefit. We're proud to support Dentons"
