Discover the power of authenticity
Imagine a future where every employee, student, and member of the community feels ACCEPTED, respected, and included, able to contribute with their full potential without worrying about having to change their body shape to be VALUED. This future is in your hands.
61% of employees report covering certain aspects of their personality in order to belong and be included in their organization.
The importance of having inclusive environments in companies is becoming increasingly clear every day. The majority of Fortune 500 companies have diversity and inclusion programs regarding race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, language, religion, or disabilities. However, recognition of diversity in body types and sizes is still not considered, leading to harmful environments and messages surrounding people’s body shapes, which diminish their self-esteem and affect their productivity, physical health, and mental well-being.
In many countries, companies are regulated by laws that require them to provide their employees with a healthy work environment, free from psychosocial risk factors.
In Mexico, it’s regulated by the Norma Oficial Mexicana NOM-035 on Psychosocial Risk Factors, and in Spain by the Ley 31/1995 on Prevention of Occupational Risks. A work environment where there are stereotypes about obesity or overweight can result in penalties and fines for the company in case of inspections by the competent labor authorities.
Discrimination faced by people living in larger bodies is considered a psychosocial risk factor, as it generates stress, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders.
Jokes or hurtful comments about a person’s weight, stereotypes linking overweight individuals to laziness or lack of control, unsolicited observations about someone’s eating habits – these are examples of situations that could be happening in your company.
Eating disorders can be invisible barriers to the optimal performance of your employees.
Eating disorders are a significant cause of malnutrition and obesity. The inflammatory condition caused by obesity leads to low levels of concentration, gastrointestinal problems, depression, and fatigue, all of which are reflected in the individual’s well-being and productivity.
