Work has been a major determinant of adult physical activity throughout most of history. Yet public health initiatives and guidelines have traditionally focused on promoting physical activity during leisure time; the workplace has received limited attention.1 In this editorial, we: (1) argue why the workplace offers a great potential for promoting physical activity in working populations, (2) discuss reasons for the many failures, (3) share success stories and (4) suggest a new approach to unleash the great potential of workplace physical activity initiatives.
