Provide access to showers and lockers

Rationale: Access to showers and lockers supports physical activity during the day, encouraging active commutes and increasing the likelihood of employees engaging in physical activity before, during, or after work hours — contributing to reduced risk of cardiovascular conditions, obesity, and diabetes.

Requirements

Demonstrate compliance with the below:

Active Commuter Amenities (Full Credit):

To achieve full credit, demonstrate compliance with all of the following requirements:

1. Provide showers and lockers free of charge to all full- and part-time employees and staff.

2. Meet demand based on the total number of occupants that have access to the showers and lockers, as follows:

• 1 shower and 5 lockers for 1-100 occupants
• 2 showers and 10 lockers for 101-300 occupants
• 3 showers and 15 lockers for 301-500 occupants
• 4 showers and 20 lockers for 501-1,000 occupants
• 1 shower and 5 lockers for every additional 500 occupants for 1,001+ occupants.

3. Locate the amenities within a ½-mile or 800-meter walking route of a main building entrance.

Showers and lockers located in fitness facilities that are accessible to the general public do not qualify for the strategy.
