Otherwise, why would they?

@DD1, just read through the policy and didn’t seem included since it’s not directly linked to fitness

I bought the like $700 IKEA one last year, D covered their 50% with the subsidy

Did you look at the pdf info graphic? Standing desk is and ergonomic Office chairs are specifically on there

They’ll cover it. No need to be so literal. I bought a balance ball office chair with my subsidy.

Doctors note

Some of our offices have treadmill desks

Thanks for sharing @P1

Ohh awesome. Thank you!! Y

Wellness credit includes this, did it last year.

Hello RSM coworkers! I am thrilled to be moving to RSM into a Scheduler roll. I just found out yesterday and want to be as prepared as possible in the next steps.

So here are my questions.

How long does the background study take? I'm guessing admin staff have a study that is faster and less complicated than someone in Tax ect.

When training at home what did you need that wasn't supplied by RSM? My home office is well stocked but I want to be as prepared as possible.

Thanks in advance!
