Sharecare, one of the leading digital health companies, has recently launched Get Active, a virtual reality program to make exercise an innovative, inspiring workforce towards well-being.
This program reports 82% engagement and 280% increase in average exercise span in a week of the healthy and high-risk employees of Lennar Corporation, one of the significant homebuilding companies in the U.S. It gives immediate health benefits, improves sleep quality, immunes from chronic diseases, reduces anxiety and blood pressure, and reverses pre-diabetes.
Dr. Pascal Goldschmidt, Chief Medical Officer of Lennar Corporation, said, "At Lennar, we believe deeply in empowering our entire workforce to be fit for adaptability – and physical activity is core to fulfilling that goal." He added, "While I was optimistic going into this pilot, engagement across the board exceeded our expectations and feedback from our highest risk associates has been very positive. Sharecare has demonstrated its continued commitment to innovation and driving sustained employee engagement, and we are excited to expand Get Active to more Lennar Associates this year."

This program designs gamified physical exercise experiences for employees through Meta Quest 2. It paved the way for the well-being of the disabled and those who prefer home workouts over public gyms. Its virtual activity features stretching to basketball exercises with standing and seating positions.
William Janis, Senior Vice President of Health Advocacy at Sharecare, stated, "We have a strong track record of investing in innovation, including VR, to improve our comprehensive wellbeing platform and the employee experience, and the initial feedback on Get Active from Lennar's Associates is both encouraging and inspiring." He added, "We are excited to differentiate our whole health benefits offering on behalf of our partners and their populations with a unique and approachable program that's fun and naturally engaging for employees of all fitness levels while improving outcomes and reducing costs."
