Corporate speaker Andrew Cavanagh says a large organization like the Cairns City Council could be losing over $1 million dollars every year in lost productivity due to health problems in its workforce
May 31, 2004 (Press Release) --
“A progressive local government like the Cairns City Council could reverse a reasonable percentage of this cost by simply introducing basic diet and lifestyle education in the workforce.”
Andrew Cavanagh is a health writer, member of the Australasian Medical Writers Association and author of the groundbreaking book “From depression to glorious health in six steps” and “One hour to glorious health and permanent weight loss.”
“Depression costs business more than any other single disease,” said Mr Cavanagh. “Depression is followed closely by sleep problems and accidents due to sleep deprivation, viruses like the common cold and influenza, and complications caused by problems with excess body fat and obesity.”
“Poor health in the workforce costs business around $1,500 per employee every year.
“Put another way for every 30 employees on a company’s payroll there is an extra, uninvited employee drawing a full wage called ‘poor health.’
“This employee does nothing but bring misery and suffering to the workforce, dragging down morale and reducing profits.
“Even though it is progressive and forward thinking, the Cairns City Council with its 852 employees is losing approximately $1,278,000 lost every year due to poor health in its workforce.
“This is a very conservative estimate. In reality the cost in lost productivity for an organization of this size could be over $3,500,000 every year.”
Fortunately there are solutions at least in part to this problem.
The greatest key according to Mr Cavanagh is implementing education on excellent diet and lifestyle choices.
Andrew Cavanagh is an expert on diet and lifestyle protocols to reverse disease authoring the first book of its kind on a diet and lifestyle protocol to reverse depression.
Much of Mr Cavanagh’s writing is available free of charge including the free 18 part health course “Reversing all chronic disease”, the free books “From depression to glorious health in six steps” and “One hour to glorious health and permanent weight loss.” www.glorioushealth.cjb.net

Voluntary health programs and education are perceived as a caring gesture from management and can even be used to create excellent public relations.
Some organizations sponsor a health speaker and make the event available to their staff and the general public significantly improving their perceived image in the community.
This is a win-win idea. The reduction of health costs in the organization pays for the health speaker many times over and the local community is grateful to the council for supplying the accurate health information so desperately needed.
