The first scenario is that Fitbit allows our employees to see their exercise productivity in a day. The facility we are working in is a [healthcare-based] facility. We have staff that [is] constantly on the go. The device monitors their activity for personal knowledge and [professionalism]. Therefore, the employee can decide if they are doing enough exercise in a day or if they need more. As an employer, we like to have [documented] activity to provide a wellness benefit. The Fitbit provides us with ideas and tools to improve the health of our staff and to make exercise fun. Lastly, the other features that Fitbit has been extremely beneficial to our staff and residents. They can monitor things like sleep and healthy choices on their own. In addition, looking at [heart rate] and how that reflects on their activity.

  • Ability to upload GPX tracks.
  • privacy protection to it’s customers.
  • Some of these locations and your biometric response you may be ok with Google knowing so that it can personalize your ads, but in many cases you may not want your activities tracked. It would be good for Fitbit to give its customers the power inside the mobile app to sort and allow which data is uploaded to it’s cloud before it leaves their device.

Some benefits of Google which apply to your business are including: Integrates easily with other apps like Samsung Wellness and quickly shows the number of steps you have taken each day. Also, it records your pulse rate every 10 minutes, shows you where you have been throughout the day on a map, and provides accurate step counts, distances, and caloric content at the touch of a button. Because it offers all of this for free, Google Fit is fantastic.

  • Healthy staff are more productive and can do more which has an impact on [the] ROI of business.
  • Google fit can be configured to track how much weight is lost each day, the total weight [loss] to date, and an estimate of how much weight still needs to be lost, physically fit employees are an asset to [the] organisation. This would benefit ROI, more active physically, more active on the job.
