Abstract: This non-doctrinal study examines the relationship between employees’ physical exercise habits and their psychological well-being and work attitudes. Using data collected via Google Forms from a diverse sample of 118 employees, the study investigates exercise frequency, session duration, and predominant exercise type, alongside self-reported energy levels, stress, motivation, job satisfaction, and organisational commitment. The results indicate that regular physical activity— regardless of session length—significantly enhances energy, positivity, and engagement while reducing stress and fatigue. Walking and jogging were associated with higher energy and motivation, whereas yoga and meditation promoted emotional calm. Importantly, 86.4% of participants reported improved work attitudes on days they exercised, highlighting both immediate and cumulative benefits. The study underscores the practical value of integrating exercise into workplace wellness strategies and provides actionable recommendations for organisations seeking to improve employee well-being and productivity.
