Do you know that you can prevent needless pain and suffering, through enabling early detection of cancer? Do you realise that by being pro-active about your employees’ health, you can save money and increase productivity in the workplace? This Corporate Wellness Week (4 to 8 July 2022) and throughout the year we invite you to look after your own, by taking the time to invite CANSA to your workplace to offer cancer screening and education around recognising the symptoms of cancer and lowering personal cancer risk. Screening also helps identify risk for non-communicable diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. FACT: Cancer has increased and is being diagnosed more frequently* and it’s important to do annual screening to enable early detection. FACT: Employees often neglect to do screening as they feel they are too busy. By bringing cancer screening to the workplace, employers can help maintain employee health and productivity levels. Employees should not underestimate their significant role in helping the public to lower their cancer risk and detect cancer early through allowing cancer screening in the workplace. It’s about prioritising the health and well-being of the employee. HOW CANSA HELPS COST OF SCREENING MAKE A BOOKING We offer a comprehensive service with CANSA’s Lifestyle Risk Assessment producing a company risk profile after each employee completes the assessment.
