A sustainable workplace has never been more important. As our society moves towards implementing more carbon-reducing policies and behaviour, relying on cars will become ever more restrictive and expensive.
The Leicestershire county council-based team supports businesses, that recognise the health, environmental and financial benefits of encouraging their staff to make commute and in-work journeys by active and sustainable transport. Its Business Engagement Programme will help you to develop and incorporate active and sustainable travel as part of your workplace culture.
Research shows that your staff could be healthier, happier and more productive if they can travel to work actively and sustainability.
Given the right support and opportunity many staff would change how they travel to work. Why not take advantage of the free service to see how they can help you? It’s good for business, what have you got to lose?
Support includes Grants for Active Travel where up to £2,500 is available to help boost the levels of active and sustainable travel amongst your staff or within your community. Grants are to be match funded and designed to help you overcome barriers to active travel, for instance by funding cycle parking, lockers or showers.
