• Donating blood is completely safe. Every donor
  donates with a sterile needle that is used only
  once and then immediately thrown away. What's
  more, you have more than enough blood to give.
  Most adults have around 10 pints of blood in
  their body, and a typical donation is only around
  one pint of blood. When you think about the fact
  that a victim in a car accident could need as
  many as 100 pints of blood to save their lives,
  you realize how important your donation could be.
  Donating blood really does save lives. According
  to the American Red Cross, one blood donation
  could be used to help up to three people in need
  at hospitals in your area. Every type of blood is
  needed, and your donation makes you part of a
  special group of volunteers who want to help
  people in need. Consider a blood donation today.

• You should be at least 17 years old and weigh
  over 110 pounds. In some states, you only need to
  be 16 with parental consent, so call your local
  blood bank or hospital to check. You'll need to
  be healthy, with no history of AIDS, hepatitis,
  heart disease, syphilis, or certain types of
  cancer. Blood banks will test for all of these,
  along with other infectious diseases, before they
  release the blood to hospitals. The donation
  itself typically takes about 10 minutes, while
  the whole process can take 30 minutes to an hour
  depending on how busy the donation center is.
  Plan to fill out a health questionnaire and then
  have a mini-physical where medical staff will
  check your temperature, pulse, blood pressure,
  and hemoglobin level to make sure it's safe for
  you to donate blood. It's recommended that you
  eat something before donating, and most centers
  will provide snacks and refreshments after your
  donation.

• This is a win for your company as they'll be more
  productive. I know that lots of workers look
  forward to a treat and that gets them excited.
  And as a manager you want your employees to be
  excited and engaged at work! So you don't need to
  completely rule out the treats, but you should
  incorporate mainly healthy meal options. Did you
  know that in the U.S., someone needs blood every
  two seconds? According to the American Red Cross,
  over 41,000 blood donations are needed every day
  for hospitals nationwide to care for patients.
  And while over 9.2 million people per year
  generously donate blood, this is one area when
  you can never have too much of a good thing.

  initial energy spike, but then within a short
  time frame you hit an energy low. So then you're
  brain function decreases and your ability to
  think is hampered due to your tiredness. So as a
  manager, giving your employees lifeless, energy

  company. Most people spend a lot of time at work
  - some people up to 16 hours a day, or even more.
  So having a healthy lifestyle includes the work
  life too. It really is easy to provide staff with
  healthy snacks for work, healthy lunches, healthy
  dinners or whatever it may be. At the end of the
  day if you get your staff to eat healthy and
  provide them with healthy options their cognitive
  function as well as energy levels will improve.
