The advantages of bike are many. Not only is it the fastest means of transport in the city, but it is also a sport, an ecological mobility and an economical vehicle. Cycling even allows you to be happy, to feel free and to connect with nature. But did you know that it is also a good vehicle for social inclusion and reintegration through employment?
Be more motivated to share days with colleagues
Thanks to the bicycle, workers can travel from home to office in a practical, economical and fast way. They don't have to spend money on fuel, or waste time in traffic jams. So they are more motivated to go to work and share their day with their colleagues.
Ride on friendly streets
Cycling also induces contact with others. It animates the lives of workers by giving them the opportunity to ride on friendly streets. In the major French cities, we cannot count the smiles between cyclists as well as the discussions at a red light. The bike really facilitates social ties and that is undeniably good for morale.
Organize a short outing with colleagues who are passionate about cycling
In addition, it is possible to organize a short outing between colleagues who are passionate about cycling. This means of transport can indeed become a center of interest, a subject of discussion and a key element of inclusion and social reintegration within a company.
Its use can be extended to other more interesting activities, such as an excursion between collaborators, or even the creation of a pro-cycling group or community.
Feel supported
It should be noted that many companies encourage the cycling daily. They equip their couriers and deliverers with reliable bicycles to transport goods and deliver parcels. Thus, the latter have the same means of transport to accomplish their missions and they can travel kilometers together daily.
Companies are also planning bicycle parking to make it easier for workers to cycle to the office. This reinforces in the latter the feeling of belonging to a particular category of workers and of being not neglected by employers.
Make a gesture for the environment
Since cycling is green mobility, cycling daily also allows workers to be part of the community fighting against environmental pollution. They're not the only ones avoiding fuel-powered cars. They support communities and associations that promote the daily practice of cycling.
