AOK Niedersachsen has been offering company bike leasing for its employees since 2020. HR manager Stefan Altmann reports: “The employees had been asking for bike leasing for a long time, there had been many requests, and in principle it suits us well - we have been offering the ‘Cycle to Work’ scheme to our policyholders for a long time, so it comes full circle if we can also offer bike leasing to our employees.” For employees, this is a great benefit: “You get a bike at a low cost and in doing so, you contribute to health and sustainability. It doesn't get any better than that.”
AOK Niedersachsen is very satisfied with the Lease a Bike process – “one of the simplest we have,” says Stefan Altmann. In addition, Lease a Bike's company bike leasing helps to fulfill the company's goals in the area of sustainability: “AOK Niedersachsen has set itself the goal of sustainability either way. In addition, we conducted a mobility survey a few years ago and found that employees commute 140,000 km to their place of work every day by car - that can be reduced, and bike leasing is a first-class tool for doing so.”

Johanna uses the company bike leasing at AOK Niedersachsen.
"The new bike has increased my motivation to ride my bike a little bit more. I sometimes had to overcome my inhibitions, but now I'm definitely going to ride my bike a little more often, which also improves my fitness level. [...] I would recommend the company bike concept to other people if they are thinking about buying a new bike anyway or, for example, switching to an e-bike if they have a longer commute and can then cover a longer distance with it.”
