Understanding commuting to accompany work organisations' and employees' behaviour change

Commuting is a key domain for promoting sustainability but changing transportation habits to adopt more sustainable transportation modes is a hard challenge. Our approach is based on the idea of accompanying behaviour change by first understanding the context in which behaviours occur and then designing an appropriate intervention considering its practicability and acceptability. This paper illustrates key elements of reflection from a study on commuting that we have conducted in a workplace and that is informing our ongoing design of technology in support of behaviour change for the three stakeholders of commuting, commuters, work organisations and public administrators.
