Active Workplace
Why is an Active Workplace Important?
We spend a lot of our lives at work - up to 60% of our waking hours. So it's a great place to introduce new habits and routines that boost our health and wellbeing.
Its good for the employees, because they enjoy better health, less illness, quicker recovery times and higher morale.
Its good for the employer, because they have a happier, more motivated team, less absenteeism, better staff retention, a more positive image and a better all-round working atmosphere.
Active Workplace is a campaign to develop opportunities for employees of large organisations in Cumbria to take part in sport opportunities provided via National Governing Bodies of Sport (NGBs) an other leisure providers.
