Strategies to Adress Obesity In America's Workforce 2024 | Financial Times Live | 28 February 2024 | 22 Vanderbilt, 335 Madison Ave, New York, NY 10017

Despite evidence to the contrary, obesity is too often viewed as a lifestyle choice that can be fixed by simply ‘eating less, moving more’. In reality, obesity is a complex, multifactorial disease linked to genetics, metabolic adaptation and social inequalities, among other factors.
The event will bring together US business leaders, human resource and benefits experts along with leading health economists and health plans to discuss the employee, business, and economic impact of obesity in the workplace and innovative approaches that can yield sustainable long-lasting results for the benefit of employees and the business.

Why you should attend:
• The big picture, not just the individual strands of the business you work in
• And build relationships with some of the biggest names in your industry
• New approaches and strategies to help win market share
