After the success of our first health day in 2018, it was clear to us that there will be a Health Day again in 2019. But this year there were no different stations that could be "passed through" by our employees, but the BGM team has organized together with the AOK an information day with topic "Life Style Fitness". For interested employees, a screening took place in which the body fat percentage, muscle mass, BMI and water content in the body were measured. Following the screening, employees were provided with clever tips to improve, if they had, low scores. After the screening our staff learned about AOK's "Fit and Slim Programme" which helps to burn adipose and to build up muscles. Above all, a well-balanced diet, drinking at lot of water and doing exercises play a very important role. Finally, it was put into practice. Our colleagues were shown how they can include little active-breaks into their daily (work) life. All of them practiced easy but effective exercises at their working place together and took home valuable tips and tricks on the subject of doing exercises. Conclusion of our Health Day 2019: It always does not have to be the gym. A lot of good exercises can be done in a few minutes, even the work place. Active-breaks have have a positive impact on body and mind.
The independent test institute DtGV tested 13 walker accurately, our Premium walker was one of them (item no. A0300100S). The whole check was divided into four categories: Safety, processing, functionality and Comfort. Important to say is that the category „safety“, with 40%, was significantly higher rated than the other categories with just 20%.
In the following you‘ll find the result of our walker:
Safety: 84,4%
Processing: 80,88%
Functionality: 91,93%
Comfort: 78,51%
The overall result for our walker Premium is 84,02% and grade 2,1 (good).
In summer, when the temperatures rise to its maximum, we think it‘s time to cool down or better to say: time for ice cream. Our apprentices organise the shopping and take care that every of our employees gets some cold and tasty ice cream at his or her working place.
Our team wasn‘t afraid of the extreme hot degrees and attended the popular „Münz-company-run“. Nearly every company around Koblenz attends this event – so we. All our team mates conquered the finish line after the 5 km run healthy, a little bit tired but happy. We ended the day with a delicious dinner at a nice restaurant in old town Koblenz before we went the popular after-run party at „Deutsches Eck“.
With national and international visitors from over 50 countries, this year‘s ISH fair was, as expected, successful.
RIDDER presented a huge amount of novelties and received consistently positive feedback.
This success was only possible due to the support of our build up teams and our colleagues working at our booth during the fair. Once again, many thanks to all!
