Are your employees dragging by mid-afternoon? Is a steady diet of biscuits and lollies making your staff sluggish? It makes sense to suggest fruits to munch on in the office to improve staff energy levels and productivity. Many companies are adapting to the Fruit4
Office concept.
Through this, companies tie up with fruit delivery services for a supply of fruits, which can serve as an instant pick-me-up and additionally, benefit the health of their employees. These natural products of nature’s bounty are a cost-effective alternative to sugary and starchy office snacks.
“Fruits are an excellent option and we can use them to improve the health of employees and help them stay motivated. Our staff is so impressed with the fruit box that they have stopped munching on all the junk food they consumed earlier,” says Ashok Bhatt, who is VP-HR with Pamtel Solutions.
Nutritionists give this concept a thumbs up. Dietician Shubi Hussain says, “Fruits like banana and apple are perfect to munch on during office hours as they boost energy levels and have a lot of magnesium that can save you from muscle cramps. Junk food should be avoided at work.”
