Choose activities that fit real working lives

Optional examples across four wellbeing pillars

Activities work best when people can opt in without pressure and participate in a way that suits their schedule, location, and access needs. The examples below are fictional planning ideas—not medical advice or promises of health outcomes.

A balanced activity menu

Offer a mix of formats; no one needs to participate in every pillar.

Physical

  • Offer an optional walking meetup with a seated or remote alternative.
  • Share a short desk-movement break that employees can skip or adapt.

Mental

  • Host an optional session on focus-friendly work habits.
  • Offer a quiet, no-discussion break space during a program event.

Financial

  • Arrange a general budgeting-skills learning session with no personal disclosure.
  • Share a plain-language guide to finding the organization’s existing financial resources.

Social

  • Run an opt-in team coffee or conversation with a remote joining option.
  • Invite teams to a low-pressure shared-interest activity during work time.

Make participation accessible by design

Provide equivalent ways to join and make the practical details visible before people decide.

Offer format choices

For a 30-minute optional movement meetup, provide an in-person route and a remote stretch-along; joining neither is also fine.

  • State the duration, location, and whether movement is involved.
  • Offer a seated or observation option where relevant.
  • Share a remote alternative when the activity allows it.

Reduce avoidable barriers

For a learning session, share materials in advance and let people participate by listening, typing, or speaking.

  • Use captions for recorded or live video where available.
  • Avoid asking participants to disclose personal or financial details.
  • Provide a clear contact route for requesting an adjustment.
