You want to drive healthy behaviors in your workplace, but you’re not quite ready for a long-term program. We understand.

Get More from your Incentives Strategy
More and more, organizations are realizing the power of incentives to drive healthy employee behaviors. Whether you’re just starting to offer incentives in your programs, or you have a well-developed incentives strategy, our Integrated Incentives solution helps you easily manage your incentives, increase engagement in your programs, get more from your incentives budget, and be more agile in adapting to changing business needs.
Say goodbye to inaccuracy and the effort of manual data entry. With Virgin HealthMiles, employees monitor physical activity with devices that capture and track validated data, assuring you that increases in activity levels are real.
The GoZone® pedometer. All employees get a GoZone pedometer when they join. It’s a go-anywhere device that captures just about everything they do to get active. With a simple upload, employees frequently track validated activity data, giving you an ongoing view of their interest and participation in the program.

- Accurately tracks a wide variety of physical activity: walking, jogging, dance lessons, pick-up basketball, playing with the kids and more
