Lost Productivity: The price tag of staff who ignore heath problems!
According to the results of a recent survey published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, working through pain is actually more costly than if you had missed work to get your problem handled.
Nearly 29,000 working Americans participated in the survey. Lost productivity was a result of working through the pain. More thank 50% of the participants reported headaches, backache, arthritis and other types of musculoskeletal pain in the two weeks prior to the survey.
According to researchers, pain cost workers an average of 4.6 hours of productivity time each week.
“Workers in pain might have trouble concentrating; work more slowly than usual or even put their heads down for a spell” said lead researcher, Walter F. Stewart, Director of the Center for Health Research and Rural Advocacy for Geisinger Health Systems in Danville, PA.
The cost of lost productivity to employers is estimated at $61.2 billion!
Results of an independent survey, conducted by Stewart in 2001-02, suggested that lost productivity is a direct result of workers failing to seek treatment for common pain.
