iStock_000005898936Small[1]Aussie workers are being urged to get active, after a corporate health program revealed participants in the program registered 41 percent less sick days then their non-participating colleagues.

A 12-month research study conducted by the Department of Epidemiology & Preventative Medicine and Monash University into the results of the program revealed that participants increased their physical activity levels by over 350 percent, along with significant and sustained improvements in blood pressure, waist circumference and BMI eight months after completion of the program.
