U.S. companies lost an estimated $300 billion nationally in 2001 due to absenteeism, turnover, poor morale and lost productivity plus medical, legal and insurance fees related to job stress. (American Institute of Stress)
The Washington Business Group on Health, or WBGH, estimates that employers lose about $12 billion a year on health care costs and absenteeism because of overweight and obese workers. (Washington Business Group on Health)
There are dozens of facts just like these, as independent studies have shown over and over. Stressed workers cost companies money. Obesity contributes more to higher costs for medication and health care services than smoking or alcoholism. But employers can help their employees AND their bottom line.
Hour-long group sessions for stress reduction and weight-loss can be held at your place of business before, during or after working hours. Sessions can be held once-weekly on an ongoing basis, or can be offered in programs of six or eight weeks. Weight-loss programs include weekly group sessions and one private session per individual.
