How can treating sleep apnea help your employees?

It’s estimated that 6 million Canadians suffer from Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). It’s also estimated that 80% of Moderate to Severe cases of OSA are undiagnosed. If left untreated, OSA has been linked to long-term health risks, including heart attack, stroke, diabetes, and hypertension.

Research also links poor sleep health to a variety of workplace-related issues:
26% of workers with untreated sleep apnea had poor time management skills. This was reduced to 9% after treating their sleep apnea 1
Those with untreated sleep apnea were 2x more likely to have a workplace accident 1
Those complaining from sleep disturbances missed an extra 5 days of work annually compared to good sleepers 2
