Careers

Why I Drive
Check out why our drivers buckle up with BCRTA!
Paid Time Off (PTO)
BCRTA has a generous PTO policy that accrues based on hours worked during the pay period. The PTO rate is also based on service years in OPERS. If you have past service credit in OPERS, we’ll recognize it and you’ll earn even more! An employee with no prior service credit that works 40 hours per week earns 29 days of PTO in their first year. Employees are also permitted to “sell” or cash out unused PTO annually in November.
Medical Benefits
BCRTA offers a robust medical benefits plan to full-time employees at an affordable monthly premium for everyone. Really affordable!
In addition, BCRTA also offers vision, dental, and short-term disability benefits to full-time employees with or without medical coverage. All full-time employees receive life insurance and the opportunity to purchase additional coverage beyond the company sponsored plan.
Don’t need insurance? No problem! We offer an opt-out incentive for full-time employees who choose not to elect medical benefits.
Retirement
Ohio Public Employee Retirement System
Employees contribute 10% of their wages through payroll deduction and BCRTA matches that with a 14% employer contribution.
Ohio Deferred Compensation
Ohio Deferred Compensation is a supplemental retirement plan for all Ohio public employees. This program is voluntary for employees and is used as a supplemental retirement option.
Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
BCRTA offers an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to our employees and their immediate family members. EAP services are confidential and are provided at no additional cost to employees. The EAP offers the following services: support and counseling, financial and legal assistance, employee enrichment training, and career development.
Paid Commercial Driver License (CDL) Training
BCRTA provides CDL training for both the pre-trip inspection and driving portions of the exam. A Class B CDL with passenger endorsement and air brake restriction removed allows to drive the larger class vehicles. Don’t have or want a CDL? That’s OK! We still need plenty of staff to drive our non-CDL minibuses and vans.
Miami University Work +
BCRTA encourages all team members to enhance their education and development through in-house training and courses offered by outside educational institutions. BCRTA is a participant in the Miami University Work + Program that employs students working on a degree at one of Miami’s regional campuses. These students are eligible to receive a tuition reimbursement from BCRTA of up to $6,200 per calendar year as long as all requirements have been satisfied.
Employee Referral Program
BCRTA has an employee referral program that gives the employee that refers someone a bonus of $250 and 16 hours of PTO if their referred candidate remains employed by BCRTA for 90 days after their release from training. Join us and recruit your own team! There is no limit on the number of times an employee can receive the bonus. Just make sure the applicant places the current employee’s name on the application.
