Demographics that Drive Employee Health: Role of Education.

Age is the Number 1 factor that impacts employee health and employee healthcare costs.

However, Education is the Number 2 Factor.

Education affects Life Expectancy: College Graduates have a Life Expectancy of 84 Years. For Non-College Graduates, it's only 76 Years... an 8 Year Decrease!

Education affects Chronic Disease: Non-College Graduates have a 60% greater rates of Diabetes compared to College Graduates.

Education affects Cancer: Non-College Graduates have a 47% higher rates of Cancer Mortality compared to College Graduates.

Education affects Obesity: College Graduates have an Obesity Rate of 28%. Non-College Graduates have an Obesity Rate of 40%.

Employees who are older AND less educated constitute a particularly high-risk population that needs to be addressed through Relationship Building.
