Mobility for your company
Employee shuttle & works transport on your timetable
We bring your teams to work reliably, timed to your shifts, exactly where public transport doesn’t reach. Planning, vehicles and drivers from a single source.
This service is for employers setting up a shuttle for their workforce. Travelling on a shuttle yourself? Your employer has the timetable and the stops.
The idea
Reliable mobility, instead of leaving it to chance
Rely on experienced bus-transfer professionals for your employee mobility. In a complimentary needs analysis we jointly determine the optimal solution for your company, be it shift work, daily commuter transport or a feeder service to public transport.
Planning, coordination and operation stay with us. You set the timetable, we make sure it holds.
An employee shuttle is a scheduled bus service an employer sets up for its workforce, also called a works bus, company shuttle or shift bus. It carries staff at fixed times between their home area, public transport hubs and the workplace.
10,000+
vehicles through vetted partners
Available nationwide, even at short notice. We prefer to deploy regional partners with short approach routes.
In time with your shifts
Running where public transport leaves gaps
Shifts often start and end exactly when buses and trains thin out: early in the morning, at the midday changeover, late in the evening. That’s precisely where we place the shuttle waves.
Early shift starts
The shuttle is ready, public transport runs thin here.
Shift change
The shuttle is ready, public transport runs thin here.
Late shift ends
The shuttle is ready, public transport runs thin here.

The platform
Shuttle operations, fully digital
Beyond vehicles and drivers, we operate our own shuttle system: booking, live tracking, ticket validation and analysis in one platform.
No app required. A link is enough.
Nothing to roll out, nothing to install on private phones, and it still works when your workforce changes.
-
Booking
Employees reserve a seat through a link. Access via guest booking, employee account or single sign-on, with group-based access control.
- No app installation
- Digital ticket for Apple and Google Wallet
- Waiting list when a trip is full
-
Live departures
Live departures, current vehicle position and delay information in any browser or via QR code, for passengers and coordinators alike.
- Live countdown per stop
- Arrival detection via geofencing
- Works without installation
-
Driver app
One app for the driver combines ticket validation, passenger counting, GPS and route assignment.
- QR check in under a second
- Twelve languages
- Works offline and syncs later
-
Analysis
All trip data flows into dashboards: who travels when, which stop is busy, where capacity goes unused.
- Punctuality and utilisation
- No-show rates
- Demand per stop and shift
Is it worth it for you?
The platform is optional, many shuttles run without it. Whether it earns its keep in your case is something we work out in the complimentary needs analysis: sites, shifts, group sizes.

What we take on for your shuttle
From the first analysis to ongoing operation, the workload stays with us. You keep the overview.
-
Needs analysis & concept
A complimentary location and needs analysis, and from it a mobility concept that fits your shifts and where your people live.
-
Routes & stops
Optimal stops, travel times calculated with an eye on traffic conditions, and routes that connect your sites with the surrounding region.
-
One fixed contact person
A single person for set-up and operation, reachable throughout the whole project. We take on the workload.
-
GPS, ticketing & reporting
On request via our Mobility Management Software (MMS): GPS tracking, ticketing, KPI reporting and a protected login area.
Use cases
One shuttle, many routes
The factory gate, a public-transport gap or a commute between sites: we build the shuttle around your processes, not the other way round.
-
Works transport on a shift schedule
Scheduled transport to and after the start of the shift, including 24/7 production and special transport services outside regular workdays.
-
Last mile to public transport
Where public transport doesn’t run, or doesn’t run at your shift times, the shuttle bridges the last few kilometres to the factory gate.
-
Site & commuter transport
A connection between plants, administration and public transport hubs, in local transport as well as Germany and Europe-wide.
-
Car park shuttle
Relief at the factory gate: a feeder service from collective car parks reduces parking pressure and traffic on the premises.

Customer voices
What customers say about Hanse Mondial
-
Due to the nature of our projects, we were looking for a very flexible partner who could drive our employees reliably and often at very short notice to the respective client locations. A task that Hanse Mondial mastered brilliantly at all times, despite high complexity in logistics and extremely small time windows for planning. In particular, the previously assured 24/7 availability always worked in practical implementation too, so none of our employees was ever late for an assignment.”
David Helmes
Key Account Manager, Randstad
-
The challenge in previous years was mainly that there were too few buses, or the buses did not arrive on site at the agreed time, and that coordination and communication did not work as we had imagined. We have completely overcome all of this through the cooperation with Hanse Mondial.”
Susanne Krüger
Project Lead, Sopra Steria Consulting
-
We have been working with Hanse Mondial in various cities across Germany for quite some time. Up to 30 employees are driven punctually and reliably between hotels and workplaces at any time of day. Reliability and punctuality in particular are enormously important for us and our clients. With Hanse Mondial we have had nothing but the best experience.”

The added value
What a good shuttle does in everyday operation
Instead of traffic stress before the shift, teams arrive at work rested. Planned to the minute, the shuttle ensures a punctual start to work and relieves the factory gate.
- Punctual at work, fewer delays
- Connected to conurbations independent of public transport
- Car journeys bundled, CO₂ balance improved
- Teams arrive rested instead of stressed by traffic
- Employees save on travel and parking costs
- Vehicles from minivan to coach, depending on demand
Sustainable, and an argument in recruiting
Bundling car journeys into a shuttle takes cars off the road and improves the CO₂ balance. For many applicants, environmentally conscious mobility is a real plus today, especially where owning a car is losing importance.
We rely on the coach as a climate-friendly means of transport and commission regional partners with short approach routes. Good for the environment, your appeal as an employer and your budget.
