Many of us have, from time to time, suffered from problems such as back pain, headaches, fatigue or stress. In contrast, employees who are healthy and well are likely to be more productive. For example, a recent study by Medibank Private found that:
- Healthy employees are nearly three times more productive than unhealthy employees
- Unhealthy employees take up to nine times more sick leave than their healthy colleagues
- Poor employee health and absenteeism costs Australian businesses $7 billion a year
