Exercise is medicine in the workplace
Description
Exercise is Medicine in the Workplace: The Preventative Power of Exercise Interventions at Work examines the conclusion that workplace-based health and safety programs provide unique opportunities to induct employees and their families into the benefits of exercise and a healthy lifestyle. The video explores the role of the clinician in a workplace setting and outlines the key points of focus in such a setting, including the determination of health, the real causes of death, and what lifestyle factors can be changed or modified. The video also discusses the fact that a positive outcome can be clearly demonstrated in the workplace with a quantifiable benefit to both the workers and the employer.
