Office on the right, gym on the left. Life is good like that.

edit: I hope more employers and health insurance companies start offering this stuff for people. As the evidence proves, and will continue to prove, exercise helps to increase overall health amongst a population. Screw the fat slobs who increase my health insurance costs. It's not my fault they're sick all the time, and I don't deserve to pay the same as them! Too bad health insurance isn't run the same as life insurance...Uh oh, I'm ranting...

Gym reimbursements at work?
Do any of you get reimbursed by your employer for gym membership dues?
I get reimbursed $150 a year. Tax free. It's part of my insurance plan. It's not much, but better than nothing. I can think of lots of ways to spend $150 that I otherwise wouldn't have.

I used to get the same thing, it was nice, but free is better.
If sense were common, everyone would have it.

Any military gym is free for me to use because I'm Active Duty military, but i've often contemplated paying for a gym membership for the large gym a few blocks away from the base simply for the fact that it's a lot bigger, has more stations, and mostly because it will be filled with people who are there because they CHOOSE to be there instead of like some days of the week where my gym is clogged with people just putzing around fulfilling their mandatory 3 times per week PT requirement.
Only problem is I won't be reimbursed the $65 per month. Ick."Years of hard work for only a single moment of perfection is a worthy trade." - Myself

My company has a deal with 24 hour Fitness where we get a cut rate membership. Like has been said, a discount is better than nothing. I tried to get reimbursed for the membership to my gym, but they told me to pound sand. They didn't believe me when I told them I charge myself $100 a month to workout at home.
Rules? You mean we have RULES for that???

We have our own gym available to us at work. Plus my company has corporate discounts with local gyms. In only pay $20 a month for World Gym because of corporate discount.
