Our wellness challenges promote a culture of well-being with a bit of healthy competition. If your rewards program includes challenges or if you are looking for opportunities to promote wellness, you can choose a challenge that best fits your employees’ needs. Most challenges are individual-based to achieve personal goals, such as drinking more water or reducing stress. The Invitational Team Steps Challenge is team-based to help motivate people to reach bigger goals while working as a group.
Individuals can easily sync their wearables and other devices with WebMD ONE, providing effortless tracking of steps, exercise, and other behaviors. You can select which challenges you’d like to start at your workplace. Please contact [email protected] to get your challenges set up. Communication resources are available for each challenge to help encourage participation and raise awareness about the challenge.
Group
The Invitational Team Steps Challenge – a weekly team-based competition designed to increase steps per day. Five-person teams are formed and compete against a new, system-assigned team each week for 5 weeks. There is no maximum number of teams, but if fewer than 200 people participate the diversity is impacted and employees may end up competing with the same individuals throughout the challenge.
