Japanese Enployers Forced to Measure Employees' Waists
 
Japanese Government Attacks Obesity...

The Japanese goverment has embarked on a mandatory campaign to
slim it’s nation down. Two months ago they passed a national
law that requires all companies and local governments to measure
the waists of their employees (including family members) aged 40
to 74 as part of their annual checkups. With almost half the
Japanese population fitting into this category, that makes an
awful lot of waists to be measured.

The new law puts the maximum limit for male waistlines at 33.5
inches and women at 35.4 inches. Anyone exceeding this will be
expected to bring their waists into line with the approved
government standards through dietary advice, guidance, and
education. Failure to do so will result in the financial
penalties being imposed on the employee’s company and local
government.

Reducing waistlines has much scientific merit. Studies have
proven that being thick around the middle increases your risk
of having a heart attack, or gettng cancer, diabetes, and dementia.
