Today’s competitive workplace is diverse and demanding. Getting a good night’s sleep is very important in this situation.

Research indicates that insufficient sleep greatly impacts how employees perform at work. More worryingly, there are many medical implications of getting less sleep. Cardiovascular disease, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes are among the few.

The full impact of sleep deprivation extends to companies too. 

Such diseases result in higher healthcare utilization, absenteeism, and productivity loss. The answer to this is proactive corporate wellness programs that educate employees on sleep hygiene.

Tools like Yira can furnish senior management with comprehensive employee healthcare data, to help ensure these programs are delivered equitably.

This strategic decision can foster a sense of care in the workplace. It is key to improving employee sleep duration and enhancing workplace productivity.
