Step Forward

Keeping employees active and connected through 10,000 steps per day

Step Forward is a motivational tool that helps to keep people active and connected

The Step Forward app tracks user steps through integrations with Garmin, Fitbit, Apple Health, and Google Fit. To encourage users to increase their step count per day.
Users don’t need a wearable device – they can just use their phone! Perfect to get everyone involved.

About Us

With the Covid-19 pandemic came an influx of restrictions, forcing many to work from home. This presented the perfect opportunity for us to broaden our horizons. Find new ways to continue supporting the health and wellbeing of the workforce, even out of the office. And so, Step Forward was born! The free-to-use, app-based stepping challenge provided new ways of helping organisations support their people virtually, even worldwide.  

In the beginning, through sponsorship, we provided challenges that organisations were invited to join free of charge. This allowed us to help organisations wanting to support their people during the incredibly tough time. Today, we offer our free, global challenge and paid private challenges. Cater to a whole range of company and individual needs.

Step Forward is much more than just a stepping challenge. Through our dedicated team at Healthy Workplaces, we provide a fully supported, team wellness initiative to maximise the motivation and engagement of participants. This is achieved through features like our leaderboard updates, push notifications, user support, and tailored email communications for each host. On top of this, we’ve worked with several organisations to run step challenges alongside fundraising goals. Team leaders can commit to achieving a step goal which is supported through a peer-to-peer fundraising model.

Step Forward has been a raging success, with more and more companies wanting to get their employees involved. With such exponential growth in such a small amount of time, we’re excited to see what the future holds and continue supporting the workforce.

What’s On Offer

Host a private challenge

Private challenges allow you to set up a challenge that is only accessible to a closed group (e.g. the employees of a company). When running a private challenge, the host will be fully supported by Healthy Workplaces from start to finish. This includes support with launching the event, user support, and team engagement.

Sponsor a challenge

Sponsoring a challenge is a great way for organizations to support the mental and physical health of the Australian workforce. Sponsors of a challenge have the opportunity to offer prizes to encourage participants to increase their steps per day. App users are notified of sponsored challenges through EDM’s, social media, and push notifications.
