I've always thought that if employers paid more attention to their employees health, it would do a world of good because there would be less sick days and more productivity while at work. Nutrition and fitness opportunities would be especially helpful because proper eating and exercise can increase alertness and energy, making someone much more able to conquer their tasks with enthusiasm. I know I am a better worker when I'm well rested, well fed and energetic.

So I think it's great that employers are starting to take the initiative to promote healthy living in their employees. One pioneer in this respect is the State of Virginia, which, according to this, offers information sessions, health education, useful tips and more to employees.

Most of us spend a huge chunk of our lives at work, so it only makes sense that healthy living is incorporated into that. What do you think?
