Employer Step It Up Challenge

Embark on a Journey this Spring to Better Health and Connection in the Workplace!

This spring, inspire your team to move more, feel stronger, and recharge their well-being! The Health Action Council Fall Employer Step It Up Challenge, sponsored by CBIZ, is a no-cost, four-week step program that invites your workforce on a wellness adventure that inspires movement, mindfulness, and motivation. Participants will “travel” through new themed destinations, each with its own fitness focus and fun mini-challenges to stay motivated! By turning wellness into an adventure, this challenge re-energizes your workplace culture and helps employees bring their best (and healthiest) selves to work.

Our wellness platform partner, YuMuuv, provides support for mental and physical wellbeing. During the challenge, participants can sync or manually enter steps, chat with fellow explorers, cheer on teammates, and follow progress on team and individual leaderboards, all while supporting whole-person health.

Register a team made up of at least three participants that include employees, colleagues, customers, family, and friends.
