Employers are increasingly looking for opportunities to motivate sedentary employees to
become more physically active. Workplace walking programs have had mixed success and
typically show most improvement among participants that are already fairly active at a
baseline. The goal of this study is to determine whether a financial incentive program can
motivate sedentary employees to increase the number of steps they walk per day to meet a
minimum threshold.
The primary outcome measure is the proportion of days a minimum activity of 7000 steps or
more is achieved. Outcomes will be assessed each week for 3 months using incentives followed
by 3 months of follow-up without incentives. Secondary outcomes will include the average
steps walked per day.
