Diabetes is a hidden epidemic, leaving all companies exposed to increased absenteeism, increased risk of accidents and rapidly increasing risk of legal liability.
With over 700 new diagnoses of type 2 diabetes per day and an estimated 1.1 million people in the UK still undiagnosed, diabetes is a critical issue facing every employer over the next few years.
All companies now must face the question; What are we doing to protect our staff and our organisation from the impact of the inexorable rise in diabetes cases.
