Why are you keen to promote moving more at work?
"I am a big believer that the benefits from an active life are good for us as individuals, as businesses and for the wider community."
Mike Breeze, HESQ Manager, Yara UK
"We're promoting the benefits of active working in regard to positive mental health, as well as physical health. It's about getting to know colleagues on a more personal level (e.g. through encouraging team exercise, stretches and walking meetings) and environmental initiatives (e.g. future plans to create green spaces which colleagues can tend to at lunchtimes)."
Jade Mori, Support Services Coordinator and DSE Assessor, Quilter PLC
Are you concerned about sedentary working?
"Our colleagues spend most of their day sitting at their desks and I'm passionate about raising awareness and understanding of the health benefits of taking regular breaks and standing during the day and the risks associated with sedentary working."
Bryony Prime, Health and Safety Manager (CMIOSH), Hargreaves Lansdown
"I believe as humans we sit far too much for too many things. In a world moving towards automation, we are changing how the human body works in a bad way!"
James Wilkinson, Director, Business Operations and Workspace (UK & Europe), DAI Global UK Ltd
