On average 46% of employees suffer from back pain.
In some specific industries this is even higher, such as in construction, logistics, sales, dental practice, nursing, hospitality, and manufacturing.
The implications are far reaching both in terms of absenteeism and presenteeism (working while sick), but also mental health complications, productivity loss and ultimately lack of job satisfaction. Yet, most companies only focus their wellness programs on mental health thereby missing the physical aspect which is key for a healthy balance.
Support your team’s physical and mental health with Healactively's targeted solution for managing back discomfort, turning it into a measurable aspect of your wellness initiatives. Track progress and see the direct impact on your employee engagement!
Back pain significantly impacts a company's performance, leading to lost productivity and increased healthcare costs. According to studies:
- Back pain is the leading cause of absenteeism and loss of productivity
- Back pain sufferers are absent 50% more
- 7% who have a back pain episode will not return to work before 6 months
- This represents an average loss per year of EUR/CHF 5,000 per employee with back pain
With an aging workforce on the rise, it is critical to address the well-being needs of employees and to measure the results of back wellness initiatives.
Healactively targeted solutions help support employees' quality of life, motivation, and productivity while giving you 5X to 10 X ROI.
Back pain often results from a sedentary lifestyle and long hours behind a computer, especially with the reality of remote and hybrid work. It may also result from repetitive postures or movements at work or overexertion doing sport, gardening or weight training.
Ergonomic fixes alone aren't enough—it takes lifestyle changes and practicing small daily healthy habits personalized for your needs, symptoms and pain triggers to build a strong back.
This is the strength of Healactively.
Healactively guides you through these changes, boosting your well-being which result in better quality of life, better job satisfaction and overall well-being.
