Workplace Nutrition and Productivity
Nutrition and physical activity are very important to one’s health. The purpose of this study was to examine workplace nutrition and physical activity taking into specific consideration the effects of these initiatives on employee productivity. Unhealthy eating habits among employees have steadily increased over the years. Hence, the need for physical activity and healthy nutrition has become crucial. This study was intended to determine the impact that healthy eating and physical activity has on employees and increase awareness on ways to manage a diet. Published articles were utilized to identify and examine ways in which employees who consume unhealthy foods and exercise minimally are less productive, while employees who consume healthy foods and exercise maximally are more productive. The published articles included mostly information on healthy and unhealthy eating, eating disorders, obesity, free fruit interventions and physical activity. Microsoft and Google Corporations were used for this study to identify the accomplishments of overall health and well-being of their employees. These findings may be used by workplace managers and health professionals to assist in planning or implementing a wellness program in their organization.

Effect of Veteran Status on the Propensity to become an Entrepreneur
Veterans have always played a crucial role in protecting our country, but they have also played a crucial role in business as well. In the entrepreneurship space of this country, veterans make up around 10% of small business owners (Oja, 2020). Veterans are also comparably more successful at becoming entrepreneurs than civilians are. There many factors that affect the veteran’s success, but a major one is the military experiences such as boot camp and war which instill teamwork, disciple, and resiliency in them. Veterans then take these skills and transition into the civilian sector where they seek to become business owners. With many obstacles such as adapting to a new work environment and having to learn a new set of skills to operate with civilians, veterans have shown to be very adaptable and resourceful during this transition. Veterans are shown to be older, more educated, and to earn more money than civilians are in the small business sector. These results show support that veterans are more successful at being entrepreneurs than civilians are and this information can be used for investors seeking to work with veterans or even by veterans themselves who are seeking entrepreneurship.

Does active addiction affect performance and productivity in the workplace?
This analysis of research is to determine if Substance Use Disorder negatively effects job performance and productivity. With today’s rising opioid epidemic, we take a look into SUD and what it means to have an SUD, we take a look into the effects of SUD and look into research that looks into poor job performance and productivity and does SUD have any relationship to this. Based on data and research collect little research states that there is no correlation between having an SUD and poor job performance and productivity. Further analysis shows that there is a correlation but there needs to be more current research due to the current status of SUD in the United States. Research also shows that there is a need for more in depth research for this topic due to the opioid epidemic and COVID-19 pandemic to further analyze the effects that these two events have had on the work force when it comes to mental health specifically SUD. This thesis will take a look into addiction, job performance, and productivity and what impact one has on the other.
