Why Gym Memberships for Employees Matter

Let's face it - a healthier team means a happier workplace. Did you know that UK employees who exercise regularly take up to 27% fewer sick days

Offering discounted gym memberships for employees shows you’re serious about wellbeing -  and it can pay off in higher engagement and better performance.

Three Big Benefits You'll See Right Away

1. Supercharged Productivity

When your team exercises regularly, they bring that energy back to work. According to the World Health Organisation, adults should do muscle-strengthening activities at moderate intensity at least twice a week for additional health benefits.

Regular exercise improves cognitive performance, enhancing creativity, innovation, and overall engagement in your workplace. 

Fewer sick days + more energy = a team that gets more done!

2. Happier, More Engaged Team

Let's be honest - happy employees stick around longer. With UK workplace stress affecting nearly 40% of employees, giving your team a healthy outlet makes a massive difference.

Promoting physical and mental wellbeing boosts morale and job satisfaction, creating a positive workplace culture that everyone wants to be part of.

3. Stand Out in the Hiring Game

Gym memberships for employees help you attract and retain top talent. When you show you care about your team's wellbeing, you can become an employer of choice.
