The benefits of healthy eating at work

We eat at least a third of our daily calories while at work, and what we eat has a big impact on our health and how well we perform.

Since many employees spend a large portion of their day at work, the workplace plays an important role in influencing eating habits.

Supporting good nutrition at work can:

  • Boost concentration and reduce tiredness
  • Lower the risk of chronic illnesses like heart disease and diabetes
  • Improve mental wellbeing and reduce stress
  • Enhance overall workplace morale and engagement
