This project explores how and whether nutrition interventions at workplaces – or workforce nutrition programmes – lead to improved business outcomes for the implementing businesses.
Such programmes can improve employees’ health through better nutrition. However, there is limited evidence linking nutritional outcomes to financial benefits to the businesses. This project will work in partnership with the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) and olam food international (ofi), and gather evidence from ofi’s worksites in LMICs. This project addresses two research questions:
- Do workforce nutrition programmes improve business outcomes for implementing companies? If so, how much?
- How do workforce nutrition programmes translate to nutritional and, in turn, business outcomes? What are the pathways in which nutritional interventions lead to business outcomes?
