I saw yesterday here on the forum that there is a member whose employer pays them $2 per day to ride their bike to work. I could see how this could be a win/win for everyone. The employer wins by having a program that people want to participate in, lower insurance premiums and healthier employees. The employees would benefit by being encouraged by the money to participate which would at least get some people started in biking to work.
Anyways, I'd like to propose this idea to the HR department of my company. I think it could go over really well here since they're always looking for ways to increase participation in the goofy health events (such as walking club at lunch etc).
Has anyone else done some kind of official proposal like this? I'm terrible at this type of thing, but I'm hoping that my fellow mustachians can help me out with the proposal. If someone could get a "standard bike to work proposal" going they could post it here and other people could use it. With such a "bike to work" culture on this forum I'm sure many people would benefit by submitting it to their own employer. Just think.. this proposal wont only possibly get rewards for mustachians already biking, but new mustachians and coworkers of mustachians could all benefit from this.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Ryan
