Grant Thornton is encouraging its staff to get out and walk around more in its Global Corporate Challenge.
Teams of seven employees will wear pedometers for 125 days and attempt to cover 10,000 steps each per day. Fifty-one teams totalling 357 people will take part, according to Employee Benefits UK.
Each day, teams will record the total number of steps each day into a website, which will convert the number of steps into miles travelled across the globe.
Teams can track each other's progress across the globe. :The aim is to get people to exercise more and develop a healthy habit that they can continue long after they have finished the challenge, head of Corporate Responsibility Margaret Bowler told Employee Benefits.
