The most common cause of missed work is the common cold. The second most common reason for missed work is back pain. Back pain can easily be treated with Chiropractic care. The common cold can not be treated at all. Therefore the easiest and most economical way employers could reduce missed work days would be to pay for chiropractic care for their workers.
