Staff members breathe life and value into your business. Within the modern worksite there are increasing instances of stress, anxiety, obesity, depression, and heart disease. The modern worksite has become increasingly exercise-free.
Technological advances have lessened the need to “walk” at work. Moving a mouse has the same level of physical exertion as pressing the buttons on a remote control. Emails, the fax, and the internet have meant that it is possible to run a business without having to leave the chair. The “advances” affect physical and mental health in a disastrous manner ultimately affecting your business’s profit.
A sedentary lifestyle is a recipe for disaster – heart disease, chronic back pain, repetitive stress disorder, and low employee self-esteem are symptomatic of a work environment in which the only exercise available is surfing the net. Corporation morale will invariably suffer if an exercise policy is not endorsed and put in place.
Regular exercise can significantly improve workplace health. Instances of absenteeism and staff turnover, low staff morale and decreased productivity can be alleviated with a Corporate Wellness Program that energizes and motivates tired workers. Boredom, repetitive motion injuries and workplace fatigue can only be combated with physical and mental stimulation.
Studies show, workers who are physically active on a regular basis record less sick days each year and are more energetic, dynamic, and industrious. Investing in the health of your staff pays dividends through increased productivity and goodwill. Physically active workers are happy workers.

However, the problem with corporate fitness facilities is that workers spend one quarter of their lives at work and typically are not motivated enough to come in early or stay late to do an exercise program.
