Lack of physical activity poses a major health issue. With the majority of Canadians spending half their waking hours at work, workplaces are a great place to incorporate physical activity opportunities for all employees.
15 million Canadians spend half of their waking hours at work. The latest Health Canada Population Health Survey shows people who are inactive at work are also inactive at home. Many say time is the biggest barrier to increasing physical activity. Because adults spend so much time at work, it’s a good place to promote physical activity.
