Getting Started

A good place to start is by looking at all the travel associated with running your business and developing a plan to make your travel smarter and more cost effective. 

The New Zealand Transport Agency has a simple, clear explanation of what Workplace Travel Planning it is and how to do it, with handy templates you can adapt for your workplace - see NZTA Workplace Travel Planning  You can also contact your local Council for assistance. 

The Walk2Work Toolkit is a resource to help businesses encourage their employees to walk to work, thus reducing absenteeism, improving employee health, and increasing productivity.

Walking is the most accessible and easy form of exercise.  It doesn’t cost anything, no special equipment or training is needed, and people of all levels of fitness can walk.
