Liverpool Active Workplaces

  2. Employer Resources

The Liverpool Active Workplace Toolkit has been developed to support employers in promoting the benefits of physical activity to employees.  It brings together best practice and demonstrates the benefits for employers in developing an active workforce.  The Toolkit includes lots of ideas that employers can try to enable employees to become more active - all are designed to be low cost, quick and simple to implement!

 Benefits of an active workforce:

  • Better Morale and Lower Staff Turnover
  • Improved Productivity, Staff Communication and Wellbeing Levels
  • Absenteeism reduced by up to 27%
  • Demonstrates Corporate Social Responsibility
