Why Bike to Work Day Matters—And How Employers Can Support It

Today marks Bike to Work Day, a national initiative promoting sustainable transportation, physical wellness, and community connection. For employers, it’s more than a symbolic celebration—it’s an opportunity to support employee health, reduce your carbon footprint, and enhance workplace culture.

At Seubert, we’re proud to roll forward with our own wellness initiatives—literally. This year, we added four new bikes to our Pittsburgh office, available for employees to use during the workday. Whether it’s for a lunchtime ride, a quick commute, or a wellness break, these bikes offer a fun and active alternative to driving.

Why should employers consider promoting bike commuting or on-site bikes?

• Boost Employee Wellness: Regular biking reduces stress, improves cardiovascular health, and supports work-life balance.

• Support Sustainability Goals: Encouraging alternative commuting methods contributes to corporate social responsibility and ESG efforts.

• Foster Team Culture: Group rides or casual midday loops can strengthen team bonds and morale.

Tips for Employers:

• Offer secure bike storage or commuter incentives.

• Add loaner bikes or e-bikes for on-site use.

• Promote Bike to Work Day through internal wellness platforms.

• Tie in programs like your wellness challenge or step goals for added engagement.

At Seubert, we believe small shifts—like providing bikes—can lead to big impact. Whether you’re just starting or expanding a workplace wellness initiative, consider how active commuting can support your employees and your company mission.
