Business Travel Linked to Obesity, Poor Health
Road warriors who travel two weeks or more a month have higher body mass index,
higher obesity rates and poorer self-rated health than those who travel less
often, according to researchers at Columbia University's Mailman School of
Public Health.
The study drew data from medical records of more than 13,000 employees in a
corporate wellness program provided by EHE International. Nearly 80 percent of
employees traveled at least one night a month and one percent traveled more
than 20 nights a month.
Overall, the researchers found that business people who traveled the most (20
or more days a month) have poorer health compared with those who travel between
one and six days a month.
For example, extensive travelers:
Had a mean Body Mass Index (BMI) of 27.5 kg/m2 versus 26.1 for light travelers
Had a mean HDL level of 53.3 mg/DL versus 56.1 for light travelers
Had a mean Diastolic pressure of 76.2 mmHG versus 74.6 for light travelers
Were 260 percent more likely to rate their health as fair to poor compared to
light travelers
Employees who did not travel at all also scored poorly on health measures.
Non-travelers were about 60 percent more likely than light travelers to rate
their health as fair to poor and had a mean body mass index of 26.7 kg/m2.
According to the authors, poor health among non-travelers may reflect a
"healthy worker effect," with employees who have health problems being less
likely to travel.
he authors note that 81 percent of business travel is done in personal
automobiles, which is associated with long hours of sitting and a high
probability of poor food choices.
While research to date has associated business travel with infectious disease
health risks, this is the one of the first studies to report the effects of
business travel on health risks associated with cardiovascular disease.
