Do you have a minefield of employees? Which one is waiting to detonate?
Will others be affected?
Does your worksite experience fatigue, high alcohol intakes, poor decision making leading to accidents and injuries, expensive return to work accident claims, reduced productivity, obesity, diabetes?
Lifestyle diseases are the silent OH&S risk for the worksite.
Employees are silently developing health risk factors such as overweight (67% of Australians!), elevated blood pressure, insulin resistance from poor lifestyle choices.
These risk factors lead to chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, cancer, obesity, high blood pressure and Type 2 diabetes.
Can you think of an employee whose health status concerns you?
Is the poor health of one employee putting the safety of another at risk?
Unhealthy employees are more fatigued, angry, tired at work, absent from work, or make poor decisions that ultimately affects their absenteeism, injury rate and productivity.
