At Yo-Yo WORKS, our mission is backed by evidence. We curate leading research and expert statements that demonstrate the health, wellbeing,
and performance benefits of reducing sedentary time and encouraging active working.
Alongside these publications, we also offer a CPD-accredited Active Working Seminar — a 45-minute session designed for architects, designers, dealers, and workplace leaders. Led by Gavin Bradley (founder of Active Working®), the seminar translates evidence into action, showing how design can transform behaviour and quadruple desk usage rates.
Below you’ll find selected research, with more to follow — so keep an eye out for updates.
