PETALING JAYA: Companies can play a pivotal role in helping reduce risk of preventable health issues by implementing policies to inculcate a healthy lifestyle culture at workplace, according to the Health Ministry.

Deputy Health Minister Dr Lee Boon Chye said companies can provide space for fitness facilities, and time for employees to participate in recreational activities at workplace.

"Income level, social status, education background, and working conditions continue to shape and affect our health, sometimes in ways that are beyond our control. "I do hope that each and everyone of us take ownership and responsibility for our own health," he said.
