Lifestyle Medicine as the Foundation of the Modern Workplace

Working time is part of our lifetime – which means that office architecture and corporate culture are also factors that shape our health. After all, an ergonomic chair alone is not enough if working practices and company culture leave no room for recovery.

This talk explores how the key pillars of lifestyle medicine and longevity – physical activity, nutrition, recovery and social relationships – can be applied to both the office and the home office. From a medical perspective, it examines how work environments can be designed to counteract the chronic effects of stress and prolonged sitting and support healthy ageing in the long term.

How can a “Healthy Office” promote not only well-being, but also long-term performance and productivity? And why is healthy longevity increasingly becoming a leadership responsibility in the modern workplace?
