Workers penalized on issues of health


It's now come to the point where workers are being PAID LESS for having high BMI scores- wow. It's bad enough there is still such a disparity as to the pay rate of women versus men. Imagine being an obese woman compared to a healthy man counterpart. Quite a difference in pay!

Check out this story the Globe ran courtesy of the Associated Press:

They should be paid less! They cost the rest of us more money.
