Novo's Être en santéBe Healthy program took me out of my comfort zone, especially with the 4-hour outdoor per week challenge last January (2021). Usually in the winter, when it's really cold, I need motivation to move because I much prefer my couch. But this challenge helped me step out of my comfort zone and motivate me to go outside, no matter the weather. With this challenge, I started walking for 15 to 30 minutes almost every lunchtime. In addition, going out for lunch, even for 15 minutes, provided me with a break from teleworking, to get out for some fresh air and start my afternoon with more energy.

"Added value" are two words that come to mind. I have been using the Be Healthy app weekly for the past three-and-a-half years since joining Novo. Through this app, the employer helped reimburse me for two marathons, it has a WoW effect! Personally, it doesn't encourage me to play more sports, but it does encourage me not to stop being active, which is also essential. The mobile app and this state of well-being - what a great idea to motivate yourself to move and be active!

In May 2019, an opportunity with another employer presented itself to me but it didn’t meet my expectations. After some thought, I made the decision to contact Novo to rejoin the team. There are many reasons for returning to Novo: flexibility and autonomy of the work schedule, the group insurance program, the Be Healthy at work program, work-life balance, innovative and visionary general management, cooperative managers who listen to their employees, but above all recognition. At Novo, the term "big family" means something, and you can feel it!

The platform is easy to use and it's motivating to see little things being added to the calendar. The more points I earn, the prouder I am!

Personally, I have been quite active for a long time. I run and keep fit with weight training and other exercises. I have used several apps over the years that ultimately only calculated km, number of steps, or calories burned. The Be Healthy app promotes a healthy lifestyle that isn’t just based on performance. It makes us realize the importance of the other aspects that make up a balanced life. It's easy to use and it's easy to navigate. The ability to use it on both my phone as well as my computer helps me maintain regularity when recording my activities. For people who train alone like me, the application provides a high level of motivation in order to follow and maintain the frequency of my workouts.

We’ve been pleased with their services, but since having our own advisor appointed to us, we’re very happy and grateful for the excellent service we receive from Novo. Our advisor has effectively assisted us in dealing with the special circumstances in 2020.
