How can employers make sure obesity benefits are inclusive and accessible to all employees, not just a select few?
Inclusivity means designing benefits that address the wide range of employee needs, not only those who qualify for surgery or medication. Employers can achieve this by ensuring clinical oversight for GLP-1 use, offering lifestyle and behavioral support as a standard benefit, and providing telehealth or digital access so programs are available across locations and work schedules. This ensures every employee who struggles with obesity has a pathway to better health.
