A new guide from Northeast Business Group on Health helps employers understand the challenges women face when it comes to cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity. It also recommends actions that employers can take to support women in their workforce.
A Northeast Business Group on Health survey, published Monday, found that 26% of employers never identify the needs of employees, nor the “awareness and effectiveness” of their mental health programs.
