The condition of high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity and uncontrolled cholesterol is called metabolic syndrome. Besides heart diseases, it also increases the risk of diseases like cancer and stroke.

Surveys reveal that every second employee is overweight or morbidly obese. 6 out of 10 employees had high levels of HDL (cholesterol) which is a risk factor for heart related diseases. In this study, 44.2% of employees were overweight, 16.85% were obese, 3.89% had diabetes and 64.93% had elevated cholesterol levels.
