Workplace Wellness…Why it Matters?
According to the CDC, chronic diseases and mental health conditions account for 86% of our nation’s health care costs. Chronic diseases and conditions – such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and arthritis – are among the most common, costly, and preventable of all health problems. Research studies show that employees who are physically active and lead healthy lifestyles incur 31% lower health care costs than employees who live sedentary, unhealthy lifestyles.
