You are entitled to 60 minutes of health promotion time per week if you work full-time. This includes the time it takes you to get to and from your activity, as well as any other preparation. 

The activity can be divided into shorter sessions, for example three 20-minute sessions or two half hour sessions. Check with your manager when planning how to use your health promotion hour.

The health promotion hour should be used between 11:00 and 14:00 so that you regain energy during the working day and make the most of daylight hours.

Reporting health promotion hours

When you use your health promotion hour, you record it on your monthly flexitime report. If you do not have flexitime, discuss how to report the health promotion hour with your line manager.
