TI  - The impact of healthy lifestyle behaviors on productivity at work: A factory example
AB  - Objective: This study aimed to investigate the impact of healthy lifestyle behaviors, such as regular physical activity, adequate and balanced nutrition, and non-tobacco use, on employee productivity in the workplace. Additionally, the study sought to explore the association between various factors influencing healthy lifestyle behaviors and productivity among workers. Methods: The study adopted a cross-sectional design and involved 227 workers from a factory. Data collection was carried out using a socio-demographic characteristics form, the "Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale-II," and the "Endikot Work Productivity Scale." The participation rate was 90%. Results: The majority of the participants (33.5%) fell within the age group of 26-35 years. Additionally, 52% were male, and 52.9% held a Bachelor's Degree. The mean score for the Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale was 127.0±18.0, while the mean score for the Endikot Work Productivity Scale was 23.3±15.1. A negative and weak correlation was observed between healthy lifestyle behaviors and work productivity. Moreover, female workers demonstrated higher productivity scores (25.38±13.96) compared to their male counterparts (p<0.05). Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that improved healthy lifestyle behaviors among employees lead to increased productivity in the workplace. Furthermore, married individuals and men exhibited higher productivity levels, while women displayed lower productivity
