Obesity crisis
It was recently reported that not enough is being done to tackle the worldwide obesity crisis. It is in the interests of employers to do all they can to help, since many people spend over 60% of their time at work and that in the UK alone, 18 million working days are lost to fat-related illnesses. Good hydration with plenty of calorie-free water is said to play an important role in tackling the obesity crisis.
Additional health benefits
With so many working days lost, it´s a wonder how many days are lost to other illnesses which could be helped by drinking more water. The RCN (Royal College of Nursing) says that water is essential to health and it can assist in preventing or treating ailments such as heart disease, diabetes, skin conditions and kidney stones.

According to RCN, mild dehydration adversely affects mental performance by as much as 10%. It also reduces alertness and increases feeling of tiredness. This could lead to lower productivity and less efficient work.
