Employers
What would you do without your staff? Help them to look after themselves - horses need to work to their full potential, and so do the people who look after them.
How would a poor diet or a sloppy regime affect a horse’s health and performance? Consider the eating habits of your staff – if they were horses, would they be winning races? What effect could a bad diet have?
- Lack of Concentration
- Safety hazards
- Illness and absenteeism
- Fatigue and lack of energy
- Irritability and anxiety
- Depression
- Poor physical strength and stamina
- Low motivational levels
Helping your staff maintain a healthy lifestyle will help to avoid these problems; it will help to reduce absence and lead to greater productivity. Ultimately, the health of your people could affect the profitability of your business and the welfare of your horses.
