If their jobs involve them spending long hours sitting behind a desk, then I could begin to wreak havoc with their health if they don’t dedicate some time to exercise and maintain healthy eating habits. Well-being isn’t just a ‘nice to have’ along with growth strategies and hitting targets anymore. It should be fully integrated with any company’s agenda. The truth is that if you’re not looking after your employees, you can’t expect them to look after your company and your customers. Ignorance is mutual, and it is the higher managements’ job to set the example. It can be seen that many companies have started seeing well-being programs seriously. 2017 was a milestone year as 70% of US employers introduced them from 58% in 2015. Physical health is the main reason why wellbeing at work matters as 64% of adults in the UK are classi?ed as overweight or obese. Both cases have a signi?cant impact on absenteeism because of which many companies lose a lot of money each year.

By offering their employees additional perks, they are standing out among the competitors when it comes to attracting top clients. It simply improves the company's reputation. Having said that promoting physical activity among employees can drive several bene?ts for the business, unfortunately, we must note that exercise cannot offset the risks of sitting…  Standing up for just 10 minutes every hour, on the other hand, can. According to a 2017 survey out of the Society for Human Resource Management, standing desks are the fastest-growing bene?ts trend. 13% of employers provided or subsidized them in 2013 and 44% did so in 2017. Why are you asking? A 2014 study in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health found that standing desks reduced the sedentary time by more than three hours a week, they increased the sense of wellbeing and gave energy, as well as decreased fatigue and appetite. Another study conducted by Texas A&M University at a call center found that productivity increased by 46% when using standing desks in comparison to colleagues who didn’t. Furthermore, in both studies, employees felt less trapped by working in an o?ce. “Once you get used to using a standing desk, there’s just no going back- now I can stand for hours on end, and sometimes have to remind myself to give my legs a break. I feel restless and lethargic if I have to sit down all day” - Rachel Krantz, Senior Features Editor at Bustle. It might be di?cult to answer the question of what are the costs of not buying a standing desk for your business with a speci?c number as it depends on the size of your company, employer’s salary, etc. However, not having at least one in your o?ce can lead to missing all of the above bene?ts.
