Now, the focus has shifted again, toward promoting a healthier work force in response to mounting evidence showing the business benefits of work place health programs – in reduced health cost “overhead” as well as improved work performance and increased productivity 2:45 Oil & Gas Panel: Health, Wellness & Safety in a Key Global and Gulf Industry o Representatives from leading multinational companies in the Gulf’s leading industry will be joined by local company managers to explore the key connections between health and wellness, safety and productivity. § Dr. Saleem Anwar, BP 4 §
