More than 33% of employees cite weight loss as a primary health concern in 2011, according to a ComPsych Corporation poll, while 23% of employees say stress is their top health issue.
"With more and more individuals slipping into the overweight category, it's no surprise that weight management is a top issue this year," says Dr. Richard A. Chaifetz, chairman and CEO of ComPsych. "Stress levels are also unusually high, given the additional workloads many have taken on during a recovering economy.
"Workplace wellness programs are well-suited to help employees lose weight and also address stress, which can result in improved productivity and lower health and disability costs for the organization.”
