September 28th, 2012 was National Walk to Work Day in Australia. The United States hosts the annual event in early April. The idea behind these programs stems from an employer’s desire to have happier and healthier employees. In addition to promoting good health, initiatives like these encourage eco-friendly practices. Less cars on the road equal less pollution. It’s a win-win situation for everyone involved.

You can promote a new workplace fitness program or environmental practice with custom pins. Designed to be attractive and memorable, the small mementos grab people’s attention wherever they go. Pins can be simple or really detailed depending on your preferences. They can be cut-to-shape to resemble the image or photograph that included on them. This adds to their visual appeal.

Pins can be presented to workers on a piece of custom cardstock or in a velvet bag or acrylic box. Each option adds another aspect of thoughtfulness to the gift. Cardstock can be printed with walking tips or health-related information or they can include a poem or quote that fits into your National Walk to Work Day theme.
