    If the company is operating in good faith, they will be making “reasonable accommodations” for disabled workers.

    The top tier of this program requires about 30 minutes of running per day. I’m sure we can find a similarly intensive workout to meet the needs and capabilities of disabled workers, numbnuts.

      If they’re going on with this idea, they’re definitely not operating in good faith.

        Nothing in the article even suggests they are operating in bad faith.

        The company is basically asking them to voluntarily extend their work day by 15 to 30 minutes, but instead of offering time-and-a-half they would be entitled to as “overtime”, they will double, or more than double their wages.

        That roughly 30 minute period of activity is worth about 16 times their hourly pay.

          The year end bonus was canceled in order to enforce this “healthy” change during the coming months. The workers lost something they were supposed to get because some asshole wanted them to be “healthier”. There’s a considerable chance that the company will distribute less money to the workers that way.

          It’s not about keeping workers healthy, it’s about saving money, that’s bad faith.
