Studies Reveal Early Health Risks Among India's Urban Workforce
Recent studies reveal significant health risks among India's urban workforce, particularly before middle age. The Workforce Health Index 2026 highlights high rates of blood sugar dysfunction, nutritional deficiencies, stress, and poor sleep among employees. Separately, ekincare's report finds that 58.5% of workers under 35 show cardiovascular risk markers, linked to lifestyle factors like long work hours, stress, and diet. Both studies emphasize that traditional indicators like age and weight may not fully capture health risks, urging a broader approach to employee wellness.
