Diabetes: The impact on rail performance and our people
This webinar explored the risks and prevalence of type 2 diabetes and its impact on rail performance. Our expert speakers highlighted the importance of rail organisations proactively managing diabetes within their workforce. They also introduced a newly developed key performance indicator, designed to help identify and track health trends related to diabetes prevalence in rail workers. The detail behind this piece of work was shared, including information around the industry survey that will be conducted by The Diabetes Safety Organisation with the aim to gain a better understanding of the prevalence of type 2 diabetes in the rail industry.
