NJ TRANSIT Health Advisory (COVID-19 Hotline Hours of Operation)

ATTENTION EMPLOYEES

As COVID cases decrease significantly here at NJ TRANSIT, and our nation begins to recover from the coronavirus pandemic, we should all feel very proud of the fact that we have persevered through so much adversity, with so much work accomplished.

Less than 50 NJ TRANSIT employees – out of our workforce of nearly 12,000 people – are currently positive for COVID-19, and far fewer employees are contacting the toll free coronavirus hotline we established in March 2020 (at 1-888-890-0729) to handle most COVID-related questions and issues. 

As a result, beginning June 21, we will be reducing the hours this hotline will be staffed with live operators. Instead of 24/7, the hotline will be staffed Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Outside of these hours and on weekends, employees may leave a voicemail message, which will be returned as soon as possible.

Once again, thank you for all your work to keep NJ TRANSIT moving and thriving, under some of the most challenging circumstances in our history.
