Food choices for work are often seen as an after-thought, or even a hindrance. Given that the average full-time worker could spend almost half their day, 5 days a week preparing for, travelling to and from or being at work, common sense would suggest that this is where they should be receiving half of their dietary requirements. Poor nutrition leads to poor health, bringing on a lack of energy, strength and coordination. In the workplace this translates to reduced productivity, morale and greater time lost to illness or injury.
Poor diet on the job is costing countries around the world up to 20 per cent in lost productivity, either due to malnutrition that plagues some one billion people in developing countries or the excess weight and obesity afflicting an equal number mostly in industrialised economies. Promoting healthy lifestyle choices within the workplace has been shown to result in improvements in diet and physical activity which in turn relates to increased morale, increased productivity and reduced sick days.
Our Dietitians are Accredited Practising Dietitians (APD), Accredited Nutritionists (AN), and members of the Dietitian's Association of Australia (DAA). We provide nutrition and lifestyle information with ongoing professional support to the individuals that make up workplaces to achieve optimum health. We are passionate about food and healthy lifestyles, and plan for success by setting achievable and meaningful goals help develop more healthy, sustainable eating habits. We have access to innovative analysis tools to gain detailed knowledge and understanding of the unique needs, tastes and preferences of your employees. We recognise that promoting health within the workplace has moved beyond traditional education and strive to promote a more holistic approach to health in the workplace. Interventions which combine education, behavioural modification and environmental changes are more likely to bring about long term changes to health. For that reason Optimum Intake offers a range of workplace health packages to suit the needs of your business.
Combining evidence based best practise, comprehensive computer based nutrition analysis and behavioural coaching techniques, Optimum Intake can provide individual nutrition interventions, tailored to the specific needs of your employees.
