Not even a drop in the bucket. Honestly it's probably not that bad of an expense if the employees are using the memberships.

No loss. The EPA employees that I know certainly don't use the membership.

Here is the thing, you can do cardio, and lift weights and all that without paying for a gym membership. You know, sorta like us taxpayers have had to do because we get taxed too much. |

They get paid enough to pay for own memberships. From what I have seen salary's are quite inflated.
I hope we see more of this and curtailing pork programs. If all the waste/fraud was eliminated we would have more than enough for other stuff, i.e. infrastructure, healthcare, military... |

Company gym memberships are a waste of money. The people that want to work out will just buy one anyway, everybody else is just kidding themselves. The gyms love it, of course, because all of these employees sign up, never use the facility and have no incentive to cancel because work is footing the bill.

Good. Pay for your own gym membership like everyone else.
Also, most gym memberships go unused. |

Now cut their personnel by 25% and have most of the rest rescinding EPA mandates.
Then when done cut their personnel another 25-50% |

it may be in your employers best financial interests to provide gym memberships for his employees. if giving you a $9 a month gym membership saves them $300 a month in insurance premiums its stupid not to buy you that membership. Provide facts and we may adjust our view on this. |

I can understand a reasonably sized and equipped gym at large offices, but to paying for private gym memberships is a complete screw to the tax payers. Yeah its a drop in the bucket of federal spending, but imagine all these little shings spread across dozens of .gov agencies. Pretty soon your talking gallons, not drops.

How many folks are missing the part about the employees having access to a gym that didn't cost the department anything? The paid one isn't necessary.
