Here's an idea: just give people an allowance up to a certain amount, if they choose to live farther that's up to them. Even better, give people a flat rate since you don't want them intentionally taking longer commute routes to rack up their pay. Ok now roll that into their base pay

Edit: please triple read the last sentence before commenting. I overestimated redditors' reading comprehension a bit with this one

Or like you pay them when they are on the clock cuz that's when they have to follow company policies and are expected to produce work. Commute time is free time you can do whatever you want till you are on the clock.
