Productivity loss can be assessed using various methodologies:
Absenteeism: This refers to the time employees are away from work due to illness or medical appointments. Presenteeism: This is the reduced productivity of employees who are at work but not fully functioning due to health issues. Mortality: Premature death leads to a loss of potential productive years, which can be quantified using metrics like Years of Potential Life Lost (YPLL). Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs): This metric combines years lost due to premature mortality and years lived with disability, providing a comprehensive measure of the burden of disease.
