THE BENEFITS OF WALKING WORKS:

Boost morale and job satisfaction

Demonstrating that you care about staff health and wellbeing by investing in walking activities will make them feel valued and proud of their workplace.

Improve staff performance

Regular exercise causes an overall work performance boost of about 15%.

Promote physical and mental health

Walking helps prevent diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and depression. Being engaged in meaningful activities at work is an important part of good mental health.

Reduce absenteeism

Walking schemes can reduce the amount of sick days taken by staff, leading to lower absenteeism costs for the business.

Enhance corporate image

Increased walking rates can also help towards ISO 14001 and 2600 targets; reducing the need for cars is better for both the environment and the employees’ health.

Return on investment

A highly engaged workforce can improve operating income by 19.2%.
