The relationship between overweight and obesity, and sick leave: a systematic review
International Journal of Obesity, 06/18/09
Van Duijvenbode DC et al. - Although this review found inconclusive evidence for a relationship between overweight and sick leave, a clear trend was discerned in that overweight was a predictor of especially long spells (>7 days) of sick leave. As regards obesity, there was strong evidence for a positive relationship with sick leave because of the consistent finding that obesity was a significant predictor of long-term sick leave.
