Have you ever wonder how call center workers take care of their health? I
magine, they/we are working hard during times when an ordinary guy/gal is taking his/her very much needed sleep. That maybe is the most asked question about call center workers. Sounds not healthy eh.
But other than that, there are still not so healthy elements this career has. Let us enumerate:
1. Too much nicotine intake - I can assume that over 70% (Not a proven number) of the call center work force population are into smoking. You would see them carrying their cigar cases. ready to have a smoke anywhere. During 15 minute breaks, after or before lunch breaks, after shift, or just before they go up to their office they'd at least take a couple of cigar.
2. Liquor during early day time - Since most of our shifts ends around 5am to 10am, that is where our parties, get together and drinking session takes place.
3. Not so healthy foods - Around call center offices are 24hour food chain
s. That offers...well need to say more?
4. Less physical activities - Inside the operation floors, hours are spent on the swivel chairs. On a very chilling office.
You see we eat more, but burn less.
Above's list are the top things i see whenever our life style is being discussed.
Thanks to some companies that includes their employees healthy life style as one of their operational values. These companies promotes healthy foods on their pantries. Provides fruit juices. They also conduct Sports fests annually. To o
thers they work with fitness or wellness companies to offer fitness related services to their employees for less fees.
But at the end of the day, having a healthy life style is a matter of personal choice. Its up to somebody if he'll choose to be healthy or not.
