Description:

Improving workplace wellness by minimizing sedentary behavior and integrating simple activities throughout the day can yield significant health benefits.

ENCOURAGE is a program meticulously designed by a collaborative team of researchers from the University of Manitoba, whose expertise lies in behaviour change, chronic disease prevention, and physical activity innovation, along with Tactica Interactive, a digital media studio known for producing high-quality interactive experiences.

Consider this: Canadians devote approximately 60% of their waking hours to work. This statistic presents an opportunity to enhance health and well-being in the very environment where one spends the majority of their time. The health research team behind ENCOURAGE aims to support individuals in making incremental changes at work, promoting increased energy levels, better cardiovascular health, and improved overall lifestyle.

A sustainable approach to long-term health transcends simple reminders for physical activity or nutrition. ENCOURAGE employs evidence-based behaviour change strategies designed to effectively reduce sedentary time during the workday. Research has demonstrated that decreasing idle periods—distinct from merely increasing exercise—can lead to:

<ul>
 <li>Lower risk of several chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes</li>
 <li>Reduced risk of all-cause mortality</li>
 <li>Enhanced psychological well-being</li>
</ul>

Extended periods of sitting, particularly beyond 30 minutes, are correlated with an elevated risk of heart attack and stroke. By actively interrupting these intervals, individuals can significantly mitigate their health risks.
