The cost to IT sector due to productivity loss is attributed to 5 key risk factors i.e. Physical Inactivity, Emotional & Mental Health, Physical Health, Poor Diet and Substance Abuse.
Physical Inactivity and Emotional & Mental Health contributes to ~50% of total cost due to productivity loss while Physical Health, Poor Diet and Substance Abuse contributes to another 50% of total cost due to productivity loss
'Physical Inactivity contributes to majority share of overall cost to IT industry resulting from productivity loss. We believe that there is an initial threshold among employees for physical activity and thus companies can partner with fitness players who can involve employees to reduce the threshold' says Ujjwal Chaudhry, Associate Director, RedSeer Consulting
