Move at Work 

Our Shared Principles

Organisations who endorse this pledge agree that:

  1. Movement is essential for health, wellbeing, and workplace engagement.
  2. Every workplace can contribute, no matter the size, budget, or sector.
  3. Inclusivity matters — all employees, regardless of ability, background, or job role, should have access to physical activity.
  4. Culture change is key — from active meetings to encouraging regular movement breaks, normalising physical activity makes a difference.
  5. Small actions can make a big difference — promoting flexible, low-cost solutions.
  6. Leadership matters — when managers and executives participate, others follow.
  7. Collaboration drives progress — sharing knowledge, challenges, and innovations across sectors around moving in work environment.
  8. Evidence-based approaches are essential — policies should be guided by scientific research and impact evaluation.
  9. Digital tools enhance engagement — integrating platforms such as e-learning, guidebooks and activity-tracking apps helps make physical activity initiatives more accessible, scalable, and adaptable to diverse work environments.
  10. Long-term impact matters — workplace physical activity strategies should prioritize sustainable, ongoing efforts over one-off actions. Building lasting change requires the active involvement and engagement of all employees in shaping a shared approach.
