Background

.

A high proportion of adults in England are insufficiently active.1 The 
workplace is an important setting for promoting physical activity with 
potential to reach a high proportion of adults in employment (74.8%).2 3 
The Workplace Challenge aims to increase sport and physical activity 
participation in inactive employees. It is a multi-component programme 
based around a website/app where employees can track their activity levels 
and take part in online activity challenges, along with locally organised 
sports events and competitions, signposting to other local activities and 
workplace champion training.

.

Key programme features

.

Implementation

.

The programme is led and managed nationally by the County Sports 
Partnership Network (CSP Network); and delivered locally by County Sports 
Partnerships (CSPs), National Governing Bodies for Sport (NGBs) and other 
local and national partners.

.

Workplace and employee recruitment

.

A variety of strategies are used to market the programme to workplaces and 
employees. CSPs telephone, email and visit workplaces, attend local 
business network events, publish in business news journals, use social 
media, publish press releases, and distribute materials and newsletters 
using local networks and the local CSP website. Many participants are 
recruited through word of mouth or workplace promotional activities.

.

Programme components

.

The programme includes four key components underpinned by selected 
behaviour change techniques4 (table 1). Participants can log their 
activities on the website/app (activity type, duration and intensity), set 
personal goals and track their progress towards achieving 150?min of 
moderate-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) each week. Regular national 
online activity logging challenges are implemented. For example, the 
8-week active lunch challenge (January/February 2017) encouraged employees 
to do an activity during their lunch break. Points were awarded for each 
activity recorded, and leader boards enabled participants to assess their 
progress against others, either as individuals or as part of a team. Other 
shorter challenges are offered locally, for example, a 4-week active 
travel challenge. CSPs and NGBs organise local events and competitions, 
for example, table tennis competition, social summer cricket, rowing 
taster session, learn to ski session, corporate football tournament. 
Finally, workplace champions are recruited and trained to enable them to 
organise activities within their own workplaces, for example, taster 
sessions, internal walking challenges or interdepartmental sports 
competitions.
