A recent report in The Bulletin Magazine stated that overweight workers are costing Australia billions of dollars in lost productivity. An Australian study labelled the modern office as a “potentially hostile environment in terms of overweight and obesity”. The economic cost of obesity was estimated at $21 billion a year, including $1.7 billion in lost productivity.
Evidence is showing that overweight and unfit workers:
- have significantly more days off
- have higher risk of disability, such as lower back problems
- productivity while at work tends to be 15 to 20 % less than people who are not overweight
Although we hear the statistics on Australia’s battle with obesity repeatedly, it’s still shocking – almost 63% of women and more than 72% of men are overweight or obese.
As an employer, you can help workers improve their health and help them lose weight, and at the same time, improve the efficiency and productivity of your business.
Investing in a Corporate Training Package with Superfit Solutions delivers more than just exercise. We’ll help you change your employees’ approach to their health, both at work and at home.
