Learn how you and your company can mitigate the #2 cause of worker disability.

Migraines affect approximately 16% of US adults, and is the 2nd leading cause of US disability. For most employees who experience migraine attacks at work, there may be no observable evidence that they are occurring, but nonetheless there may be significant loss of productivity (ie. ‘presenteesim’) and reduced quality of life. Fortunately, very cost-effective measures are available to address these workplace impacts, to the mutual benefit of both employees and employers. The webinar will outline the nature of this overall problem and concrete steps that you can take to mitigate it.
