estimated $13 billion in 1994, including about $8 billion in health
insurance costs, $2.4 billion for sick leave, $1.8 billion for life
insurance and nearly $1 billion for disability insurance. In 2003,
HHS Secretary Tommy G. Thompson released a new report
highlighting the significant economic toll that preventable diseases
take on businesses, workers and the nation. The report
highlighted the importance for employers to make health
promotion part of their business strategy."
"The choices we make about diet, activity and tobacco affect not only our
own lives, but also affect the economic health of our families, our businesses
and even our nation as a whole," Secretary Thompson said. "More
businesses need to recognize that poor health means lower productivity and
higher health insurance costs. Smart business leaders increasingly are
finding that it is the right decision to promote health education, physical
activity and preventive benefits in the workplace."
