TCSP 48 -- Presenteeism, Headaches and Your Bottom Line with Dr. Stasha Gominak

Season #1 Episode #48

Presenteeism, Headaches and Your Bottom Line with Dr. Stasha Gominak | In this episode of The Counterfeit Sleep® Podcast, we talk about something all too common: the headache.  It’s a topic we need to talk about because the negative impact of headache is huge. Now, I don’t mean the “Honey, I have a headache” kind of situation, although I’m sure that has huge impact on anyone hearing it.  What I mean is headache and the negative impact it has on your bottom line. Recent research out of Portugal concludes: “Headache has a significant economic burden, as measured by work loss costs, in Portugal.” Now let’s pick apart that phrase “work loss costs.” Work loss costs can be the result of a variety of factors. One example is an absent employee. When an employee is not at work, his individual productivity is obviously cut by 100%. But what about the more sinister relative of absenteeism…what we call presenteeism?  As defined by Harvard Business Review, presenteeism is when your employee is on the job…but not fully functioning.  Presenteeism can cut individual productivity by one-third or more. And no matter how present you may be at this particular moment, it’s easy to appreciate how a loss of 1/3 of productivity has a significant impact on your bottom line. So what can you do to mitigate the negative impact has on your bottom line? That’s what we get into today with our guest, Dr. Stasha Gominak.  If her name sounds familiar, you may have heard our scintillating conversation in episode 24 about Vitamin D.
