Incentive Program - Bank Account Style
With the Motivation bank account style incentive program participants collect points over time and can spend them on any of a number of incentive prizes.
Participants can earn points for any or all of:
• Entries in the activity log
• Entries in the pedometer log
• Entries in the weight log
• Enrollment in a Team Lean Challenge
• Taking an HRA
• Checking in at your facility
• Entries in a custom log (e.g. 1 point per minute of walking)
• Selecting an item that you have added to the “Earn Wellness Points” list.
The last item, in particular, lets you offer rewards for essentially any kind of behavior that you wish to encourage (e.g. “I ate 5 servings of fruit and vegetables today). This is particularly useful in wellness programs where you do not wish to only reward the already typically active participants but want to make people think about the entire range of health promoting behaviors that they may be able to implement.
