Work place breaks
The country of Fit Australia released from Parliament, a survey conducted in all cities. The survey asked all employers what type of breaks their employees were getting throughout the day.
Startling results showed employers were now replacing smoke breaks with exercise breaks.
Previously, employers paid its employees to go outside and have a smoke for 10-15 minutes, at any given time. Some employees would times that by 8 - 10 breaks per day.It was seen as the norm at the workplace.Pay the worker to smoke.
Today employers are encouraging workers to get away from their computers and get moving. This is done by a walk up the stairs to the next floor, or 3 laps around the floor they work on, a walk outside or a walk on the floor treadmill.
This has led to more productivity,less stress and happier workers.
Smokers now have to clock off if they smoke in work time. They are rewarded if they exercise.
The Country of Fit Australia does it again.
