Simple Reminders to Improve Employee Health

Did you know that more than half of Americans live with one or more chronic diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, and asthma?

Chronic health conditions can take a serious toll on individuals and businesses, both physically and financially. This year alone, billions will be spent on direct and indirect medical costs. Learning how to manage these conditions is vital to improving your employees’ quality of life—and your company’s bottom line.

It’s never too late to encourage lifestyle changes that will help employees live longer, healthier lives, while also helping you reduce the high costs of absenteeism, decreased productivity, health care, and disability. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control estimates that 80% of diabetes, 40% of cancer, and 80% of heart disease and stroke incidents could be prevented if employees would quit smoking, develop healthy eating habits, and get in shape.

The Living Well Poster Series from Personal Best is a highly effective way to inspire employees to make positive choices that have a big impact. These colorful posters provide practical tips that reinforce healthy goals on a variety of common health conditions, including allergies, smoking, depression and anxiety, stress, cardiovascular health, cholesterol, and more.

Living Well Posters can be purchased as part of a 12-piece set, or individually. They can also be purchased in sets with Companion Brochures, which provide more detailed information on each health condition.
