CIGNIX | Helping 1 Million People Quit Smoking by 2030
Your smoking employees are costing your organisation far more than you think, in sick days, lost output, and rising premiums. Here is the data, and what you can do about it.
Ask most Indian HR leaders about the biggest drains on workforce performance and you will hear the usual answers: attrition, engagement, burnout. Rarely does tobacco come up. Yet smoking is one of the most measurable, most quantifiable, and most correctable drains on organisational health and most companies are doing almost nothing about it.
This article puts the data on the table. We examine exactly how tobacco use affects output, sick leave, and insurance costs in Indian workplaces, and why a structured workplace tobacco cessation program is no longer a “nice to have” but a business imperative.
