Business Case – Example
Worked example - for a company with 300 employees earning average £8.20/hr
On average, sickness absence costs employers 8.4 working days per employee per year (Chartered Institute of Personal Development 2007a).
Physical activity programmes at work have been found to reduce absenteeism by up to 20%; physically active workers take 27% fewer sick days (Health, Work and Wellbeing Programme 2008).
