Bike leasing for the healthcare sector: opportunities and benefits for healthcare institutions

Current possibilities for bike leasing in the healthcare sector

In the public sector, healthcare institutions can already offer bike leasing by allowing employees to use their year-end bonus. This provides a fiscally attractive way to give staff access to a leased bicycle.

Why bike leasing is attractive for healthcare institutions: 5 key benefits

1. Health and well-being of employees

By offering bike leasing, you encourage employees to cycle regularly. This not only promotes physical health but also reduces stress. Daily exercise like cycling leads to higher productivity and job satisfaction.

2. Time savings and less parking stress

Cycling saves time, especially for distances between 5 and 10 kilometers, as cyclists avoid traffic jams and don’t need to search for parking. This helps employees arrive at work faster and with a clear mind, improving work-life balance.

3. Budget-neutral and cost-efficient

Bike leasing can be implemented in a budget-neutral way, making it appealing for employers. It offers a simple way to improve the compensation package without incurring extra costs for the organization.

4. Sustainable mobility policy: reduced parking costs / CO₂ emissions

Sustainability is becoming increasingly important – also in healthcare. Bike leasing gives institutions the chance to reduce their environmental footprint, cut parking costs, and support a greener image by encouraging employees to leave their car at home more often.

5. Stronger employer branding

In today’s competitive job market, bike leasing is a highly valued secondary benefit. It gives healthcare institutions an edge in the war for talent, helping them attract and retain motivated staff.
