What is the Certification? 4 Powerful Goals ?

A DURABLE, CREDIBLE AND RELIABLE CERTIFICATION PROGRAMME FOR WORKPLACES AT A EUROPEAN LEVEL REGARDING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AT WORK

The Workplace Active Certification is accessible to any type of organisation, irrespective of its size, location, culture, sector of activity, social and economic situation.
