Description:
Workplaces with active employees have a reduced level of absenteeism, injuries, turnover, disability compensation and health and benefit costs. Employees who have opportunities to be active at work experience improved morale, job satisfaction, ability to
cope with stress and increased productivity and effectiveness at work.
The Canadian Physical Activity Guidelines recommends that adults accumulate at least 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity a week, in bouts of 10 minutes or more. Walking is a great way to meet this goal! Health professionals recommend
walking at least 10,000 steps a day to achieve health benefits.
