Why Implement WWE in Worksites?
Worksite wellness programming helps both employees and employers! The Walk With Ease program provides an effective and efficient way to promote physical activity and can be readily adopted by companies as part of existing worksite wellness programming to remind employees about the health benefits of walking and physical activity.
The Walk With Ease program can complement any worksite program because it is self-guided, flexible, and relevant for all employees (regardless of activity or fitness level). Details on the Walk with Ease program are available on our website, but additional information is available from the national Arthritis Foundation.

The standard WWE program caters to older adults; however the 'Spring into Summer' version is designed for ALL adults. It is well suited to complement worksite programming. The major advantages are that it is FREE and self-guided. While individuals can enroll in the standard, self-directed WWE program, the worksite version creates group cohesion and encourages employees to work together and to walk together.
Benefits of Engaging and EnrollingBy enrolling in the 'Spring into Summer' Walk with Ease campaign, you will receive customized 'county-specific' flyers and a resource kit with guidance and strategies on how to promote and amplify the programming.
Our team can handle all facets of programming through our online portal but we encourage company leaders to facilitate the promotion, encourage enrollment, and supplement programming internally. This leads to better outcomes and allows your company to integrate WWE into your own programming or to enhance it in creative ways (e.g. incentives or challenges). See our "Best Practices" guidelines for a sample of tips that can help in your worksite. Complete the registration form here and we will reach out and help.
