Employees spend most of their day at work. In order to keep employees healthy, there has been increased initiatives by companies to include fitness as part of their benefits program.
The three main reasons to do so are:
Benefits of the incorporation of fitness
Increased Productivity
Exercise is known to boost productivity and cognitive function. Participating in physical activity can help your employees to feel energized and refreshed, leading to improved focus and concentration. Exercise is also linked to a better mood and reduced stress levels, which can improve overall job satisfaction and the morale on the workplace.
Improved health and well-being
Regular physical activity has numerous health benefits, such as the risk reduction of chronic diseases, improving cardiovascular health, and strengthening bones and muscles. Making physical activity part of your company benefits can encourage employees to be more active, which can lead to better overall health and well-being. This can, in turn, lead in the long run to less sick days and reduced healthcare costs for employers.
Employee Benefits
Offering sport-and fitness activities as part of your company's benefits package can be an attractive perk for your potential employees. What employee doesn’t like to be taken care of? It can also reduce retention, as employees are more likely to stay with a company that values their happiness and encourages physical activity.
Incorporating fitness into the company benefit program has numerous advantages for both employers and employees as addressed earlier on. These are just some of the many reasons why companies should encourage physical activity in the workplace.

Company Fitness and the CSE
The French government introduced the CSE (Comité Social et Économique) to simplify and streamline employee representation in companies. The CSE replaced the previous employee representative bodies, such as the work council and the staff delegation, and aims to promote a better work-life balance for employees.
One way that companies can improve this balance is by incorporating company fitness programs. By simplifying access to fitness facilities, companies can promote a culture of health and wellness, which can lead to increased job satisfaction and employee retention.
The CSE helps to finance and subsidize company fitness initiatives, making it an affordable option for companies of all sizes. By partnering with gyms or fitness facilities, companies can provide employees with access to fitness equipment and classes, which can improve accessibility and participation.
Overall, stimulating sports activities by incorporating fitness as a company benefit can have a positive impact on employee health, well-being, and productivity. By taking advantage of the CSE and partnering up with Basic-Fit, your company makes physical activity accessible in a cost-effective way for all employees.

The CSE (Comité Social et Économique) is a body that represents employees within a company or organization in France. It was introduced in 2017 as part of a labor law reform, and it replaces the previous staff representative bodies such as the Comité d'entreprise (CE), the Délégués du personnel (DP) and the Comité d'hygiène, de sécurité et des conditions de travail (CHSCT).
The CSE has several functions, including representing employees in collective negotiations, advising management on social and economic issues, promotion of employee well-being and managing employee welfare benefits such as work councils, trainings and cultural and social activities.
The CSE can help to improve communication between management and employees, provide a platform for employee representation, and contribute to a better working environment. It can also help to promote employee well-being and job satisfaction by managing certain employee welfare benefits.
Companies can apply for the CSE by founding a committee, appointing a legal representative, providing training to employee representatives, managing activities and budget, and maintaining good communication with employees. By doing so, companies benefit from the advantages that the CSE provides.
Under French labor law, companies with 11 or more employees are required to establish a CSE. The specific requirements for the CSE, such as the number of representatives and the election process, vary depending on the size of the company and the number of employees.
