AWC is a fun, engaging lifestyle program that helps foster a positive wellbeing culture within your organisation.
The program creatively targets the key issues facing workplaces today. It harnesses social dynamics and peer interaction to offer a program that will positively engage your organisation to influence healthy behaviours.
The core component is the 10 week challenge that focuses on daily decision making on key determinants of health which have a long term effect on the individual’s health outcome. The team environment encourages team work, competition and personal improvements constantly setting new targets and incentives to improve key aspects of health.
Organisations of all sizes can benefit from taking part in the Active Workplace Challenge which is the first program to specifically target all key modifiable behaviours: physical activity, nutrition, smoking, alcohol and stress.

The Biggest Fitness & Nutrition Blunders in Corporate WellnessShapeUp Inc
Check out this webinar to hear from Jason Langheier, MD, MPH, Founder and CEO of Zipongo and Lucas Coffeen, Senior Product Manager at ShapeUp, about the corporate wellness world’s biggest fitness and nutrition blunders and how to avoid them.

- The most common missteps employers make in their wellness programs
- How successful, evidence-based strategies can help you prevent or overcome these blunders
- Tips on how to effectively promote both physical activity and nutrition to your team
Inspiring healthy habits: data science at WWCarl Anderson
Talk given at HealthRecSys workshop at RecSys, Copenhagen, 2019-09-20
Our purpose at WW (the new Weight Watchers) is to "inspire
healthy habits for real life. For people, families, communities, the
world - for everyone." For 56 years, we’ve been a leader in weight
loss. Now, however, our mission is bigger and broader: drive health and wellness, making healthy habits accessible to all, not just a few.
The question is, how do you deliver on that? Humans are notoriously fickle, stubborn, and irrational. They don’t always do what is in their best interests. Moreover, behavioral change and habit forming is genuinely hard. It is all too easy to skip going to the gym, to resist that extra cookie, or to take time for yourself and reduce stress.
In this session, we’ll discuss what’s involved in behavioral change
and nudges, and how the WW data science team are working on
personalized experiences, various recommenders, and other data
products at scale to aid our members’ success.
Want to exercise without going to a gym?
Walking is a great form of exercise that you can do alone, with others, outside or inside.

1. Hosting a Successful National Start! Walking Day
National Start! Walking Day is a call-to-action for Americans to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Your company
can help your employees take the first step in becoming more active by participating. Join thousands
across the nation as they wear their sneakers to work on April 16, 2008, and pledge to start a healthier
lifestyle as part of this annual event.
Follow this checklist to organize your National Start! Walking Day.
Get your senior leaders involved. Participation from key leaders such as the CEO sends a
clear signal to staff that your organization supports Start!. When senior leaders set a healthy example,
employees follow.
Save the date. Reserve time on your employees’ calendars for National Start! Walking Day on
April 16. You can also distribute the handy Save the Date cards in this packet. Set a time during the day
to hold a rally and walk. Pick the time that’s best for your company such as first thing in the morning,
during lunch or as a mid-afternoon break. If your company is unable to have a rally at a specific
time, challenge your employees to walk a designated distance throughout the day and have health
information set up along the route.
Gather a team. Recruit volunteers (maybe your Wellness Committee or your Start! Walking Program
team leaders) to help plan the day and spread the word.
Educate and motivate. Plan a National Start! Walking Day rally and walk for employees that
includes heart-healthy activities and information. Key parts of your plan could include:
• Encouraging staff to wear sneakers to work on National Start! Walking Day to show their
commitment to living healthier lives. If your dress code doesn’t permit sneakers, wear Start!
buttons, green shirts or pedometers.
• Planning a rally in your auditorium, courtyard or other location that will kick off the all-staff walk.
– Ask your CEO to address employees during the National Start! Walking Day kickoff.
You can use the presentation on the resource CD for your CEO’s talking points.
– Ask employees to share their success stories. If you participate in the Start! Walking
Program, the Lifestyle Change Award winners can be honored.
– Announce winners of the sneaker decorating contests.
• Hosting a walk, led by senior leaders, inside or outside your workplace. If you have a walking
path, use it! This will make employees more comfortable with using the path in the future.
• Serving heart-healthy snacks at the rally location and/or along the walk route. Green apples,
raisins, granola bars, bananas and popcorn are examples of heart-healthy snacks.
• Screening your employees for health risks such as high blood pressure and cholesterol. Ask staff
of a local health facility to do this for you.
• Encouraging employees to pledge to live a healthier lifestyle. This is
the day that they can start taking control of their lives. Giveaways such
as pedometers can ensure that employees keep up with a healthy
lifestyle beyond National Start! Walking Day. You can also
encourage employees to sign up for our free fitness tracker,
MyStart! Online, at www.heart.org/mystartonline. It’s a great
way to keep up the good work!
