Support and accreditation against an international benchmark to help your business become a cycle-friendly employer.
Who it is for
Any business based in Northern Ireland can apply for accreditation.
Support you can get
Cycle Friendly Employer accreditation is the international benchmark for active travel culture and infrastructure in the workplace.
Recognised for their success at a Bronze, Silver or Gold standard, organisations must meet a range of measures to demonstrate their cycle-friendliness, including communications, training and incentives for staff as well as physical facilities such as secure cycle parking, showers and changing rooms.
The scheme also supports employers to encourage their staff to consider active travel in their daily routine. Being a cycle-friendly employer brings real benefits by promoting staff health and well-being, reducing absenteeism, increasing productivity, and saving money in your business.
Cycling UK will recognise businesses for their achievements and help them integrate cycling into their business in a positive and simple way.
How to apply
Contact Cycling UK who will discuss the assessment process and book your onsite or remote audit. From submission of your self-assessment, it can take as little as four weeks to complete the process. There is a small cost to accreditation, determined by the size and complexity of your business, starting from just 50p per employee per year.
