INTRODUCTION
According to a survey conducted in 2019 among 230 organisations, 90% of the Malaysian workforce is leading an unhealthy lifestyle, 42% are overweight or obese, 53% are sleep deprived, and 51% suffer from work-related stress. This unhealthy workforce causes organisations to lose a total of 73.3 days per employee due to absence and presenteeism (present but unable to perform), costing each employer RM1.46 million per month.

This training is designed to boost workplace productivity by helping employees build healthy habits and break unhealthy ones through habit manipulation; a research-based technique proven to be transformative.
