The paper explores the impact of Workforce Nutrition Programmes (WNPs) on business outcomes, focusing on pathways that connect improved worker nutrition with reduced costs, increased productivity, and better corporate reputation. Key metrics include reduced absenteeism, lower staff turnover, and enhanced job satisfaction. Evidence from high-income countries suggests positive outcomes, but application in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) requires contextualization. Business benefits depend on factors like labor intensity, wage costs, and industry mechanization. The report highlights the need for more research to validate these findings in LMICs.
