US Manufacturing Wellness Programs Addressing Diabetes Drives Employee Engagement

Mankato, MN -- (SBWire) -- 02/11/2015 --Manufacturers' Pain Points newsletter reported that manufacturers in North America have seen employee diabetes rates greater than the national average. Rates as high as 4 in 10 employees either diagnosed with the disease or considered pre-diabetic (and heading toward a diagnosis without immediate behavioral changes). Wellness Works reported that diabetes management is not only a major personal issue, of course, but also a significant workplace issue. Many employers seek programs to help employees. A new report from the Northeast Business Group on Health suggests that some employers are frustrated that their diabetes management programs may be ineffective.
