WORK OUT FOR GOOD
This 2020 Citizen Day you will turn your energy into positive social impact. Here is how:
You simply need to register to this platform, and then get active and record your time of workout. L'Oréal will convert your physical exercise into a charitable contribution. We have set ourselves an ambitious goal: 5,000 minutes.
For every 30 minutes of collective exercise, a grocery parcel will be given to a person in need.
Once we’ve reached our collective target of 5,000 minutes, the charitable contribution will be activated and 200 grocery parcels will be distributed among underprivileged people in the UAE.
Let’s work out for good to stay healthy whilst helping those who need it the most!
What exercise should I do?
Choose any of your favourite exercises (e.g. walking, yoga, running, cross-fit, swimming, pilates, dancing… you name it!).
How do I track my workout?
You can either connect your Inphota account with your tracking device (e.g. Garmin, Strava or Fitbit), which will automatically sync your recorded steps, or you can enter the number of minutes exercised by uploading them manually HERE.
What does the grocery parcel contains?
A standard grocery pack includes: Masoor /toor dal (1Kg), sugar, semolina (500gms), chickpeas (1Kg), cooking oil (750ml), wheat flour (1Kg), rice (1Kg), toothpaste, toothbrush & hair oil. Some of the items might change based on availability and the beneficiary needs of the moment.

More info
L'Oréal Citizen Day is a global social engagement volunteering day that the Group offers to all of its employees in more than 60 countries where it operates. Every year since 2009 L'Oréal employees have been dedicating an entire day of their work time to bringing their skills and energy to hundreds of social and environmental organisations. These solidarity actions namely include running well-being workshops for disadvantaged individuals, helping unemployed people with their resume, renovating homes for elderly or disadvantaged people, or collecting waste in nature.
This year L'Oréal Middle East employees will celebrate Citizen Day with three activities:
- The Climate Change Challenge
- A Sustainable Cooking Class
- Work out for Good
Work out for Good is an initiative created by Companies for Good, that gives companies the opportunity to bring their people together under one common cause, and encourages employees to convert their energy into positive social impact.
“I am happy and proud that this initiative illustrates L'Oréal’s willingness and that of its employees to engage concretely with local association and community networks.”
Jean-Paul Agon, Chairman and CEO of L’Oréal

The inphota virtual running events goal is to provide our participants with an exceptional virtual racing experience with accurate and credible results. We expect participants to do their part by entering accurate data (such as participant weight), correctly calibrating equipment, and selecting reasonable courses (no net elevation loss). We reserve the right to remove results that we determine are erroneous or unusual, including without limitation, results that would be unattainable on a typical course. Any participant who we determine intentionally manipulated data or otherwise attempted to cheat the inphota system may be suspended from future inphota running events.
Inphota shall not be held responsible for any problems regarding access, obstruction, malfunction, interruption, suspension or difficulties regarding technical equipment, computers, cables, electronics, software and hardware, internet connection that may prevent or hinder participation in the event.

Submission of manual activities
The inphota platform allows submission of activities through many different means - Strava, Garmin, Fitbit - but we understand that sometimes it is preferable to submit the data in another way.
