    Your company is abusing it’s employees. Imagine if it was something other than exercise how abusive it would be.

    With how a lot of jobs have a lot of their pay based on nearly mandatory bonuses, this is basing pay on controlling you outside of work.

      Except it’s not, because it’s exclusively about health. It’s a discount health insurance companies offer to companies, and the company uses that money to encourage employees to be healthier.

        Your insurance benefit offered after health milestones isn’t 30-130% of your salary though

        Running 30km (18.6 miles) in a month earns a bonus equivalent to 30% of their monthly salary. Moving up to 40km (24.8 miles) pushes that to 40%. Hitting 50km (31 miles) earns 100%, and the top tier of 100km (62 miles) is 130%

          100km for 130%, when 50km will already get you 100%? Not worth it in the least.

          Depending on how they track it, exploiting that shouldn’t be too hard.

        I didnt see what was the appeal for companies until I realized they were US based companies and had to provide health insurance for their employees

        Next up they will be forcing you to a plant based diet or maybe straight to veganism. Slippery slope towards forced sterilization or some other Radical procedure that saves them money but is not necessary.
