ACTIV@WORK

Physical inactivity is one of the leading risk factors for death worldwide. It is a key risk factor for noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer and diabetes.

Physical activity is essential for good health. Workplaces can help increase physical activity levels, and thus improve the health of employees, reduce sickness absence and increase productivity.

An initiative by PERKESO in collaboration with BookDoc, Activ@Work aims to encourage employers to help their employees to stay active, even working from home! Using the concept of being active while collecting rewards, this program can make physical activity an interesting activity to do.

What is BookDoc Activ Membership Tier?

Membership Tiers Average Daily Steps in a Month
Platinum 10,000 for 3 consecutive months
Gold 10,000

How do I achieve and maintain Platinum Tier?

In order to achieve Platinum Tier, you will need to maintain Gold Tier for 3 consecutive months whereby to achieve Gold Tier you need to maintain Average Daily Steps of at least 10,000 for each month.

For example, if you achieve Gold Tier for Month 1 & 2, by Month 3 if you can still maintain 10,000 Average Daily Steps, you will unlock the Platinum Tier by the end of Month 3.

To maintain the Platinum Tier, you will also need to maintain the 10,000 Average Daily Steps every subsequent month. If somehow you only achieve 7,000 Average Daily Steps on a particular month, your Tier will then become Silver. Subsequently you will need to repeat 3 consecutive months of Gold Tier again before unlocking Platinum.

What are the rewards I get to enjoy by achieving the Membership Tiers?

The list of rewards is updated from time to time; you may refer to the latest available rewards by clicking "View Rewards" on the Activ page.

When can I claim the rewards?

You will receive notification on the 1st day of the month based on the Membership Tier you achieved on the previous month. If you achieved at least Bronze Tier, you may claim the corresponding rewards in the form of e-voucher within the first 12 days of the month. The claimed e-vouchers will generally stay in the app for 30 days during which you may redeem from the merchants via online or physical outlets, depending on the Terms & Conditions.

What will happen if I miss the claiming cycle for the rewards?

You may try again on the following months as the reward claiming cycle repeats every month.

What should I do if I am unable to redeem the reward from the merchant?

Please contact us at activatwork@bookdoc.com or 1300-88-2362 (Mon-Fri: 9am-6pm, Sat: 9am-1pm) with as much details as possible.
