This report examines the relationship between workplace flexibility and exercise among workers in the United States, with a focus on gender, race, and ethnicity. Using data from the 2017–2018 American Time Use Survey Leave Module, the study explores how access to employee-centered flexibility (e.g., flextime, remote work) and employer-centered flexibility impacts the likelihood of exercise.

What is the impact of workplace flexibility policies on the health and well-being of workers and families, and how might they reduce racial inequality?
