Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.~Albert Einstein
There are more health costs associated with obesity than any other medical condition, including smoking. That’s why it makes sense to give your employees the tools they need to manage their weight and stay healthy. Employers who invest in worksite health promotion programs see $3-$6 for every $1 invested over a 1-5 year period. Furthermore, a review of 42 research articles on worksite wellness programs revealed the following:
• 28% reduction in sick leave absenteeism
• 26% reduction in use of health care benefit
• 30% reduced workers’ comp claims and disability management
