Just as Andrea mentioned that kids who are more physically active score better academically in math and reading, we know that in the workplace, if employees are more physically active, they're healthier, and productivity increases dramatically. That's indisputably supported by data.
I believe strongly—this is my background—that the private sector has a role to play in this. Without the not-for-profit sector being arm in arm with the public sector and the private sector, we will never turn this trend around. We need to pull the private sector into this conversation. They need to be ensuring that their employees are physically active at work, that they support physical activity time at work, that they support their employees being members of gyms, or even just being part of walking programs. As well, we need them at our table helping with the resources--money and expertise that we just don't have in the not-for-profit sector.
So there are a whole bunch of ways the private sector can help, not just in the workplace itself, but in this conversation in general.
