Why Kaiser?
Return on Investment
Premiums are only 24 percent of your total health care costs. The other 76 percent
are indirect costs1 associated with:
• Presenteeism—people showing up for work but not being as productive as they
could be—63%
• Absenteeism and short-term disability—12%
• Long-term disability—1%
For example, overweight and obese employees take more sick leave than nonobese
employees and are twice as likely to have high-level absenteeism. The average annual cost of medical expenses and absenteeism related to obesity can range from $460 to $2,500 per employee.

Controlling Presenteeism
It’s Monday morning, and all your employees are at their desks working—to some degree. Bill is having a mild asthma attack that’s making it hard for him to concentrate, Anne is dealing with depression, and Dana is still worn out from the flu. They’re at work, but not really all there. This is called "Presenteeism," and we want to help you find a way to make sure your employees are at their best.
