Real-World Financial Impact: The Cost of Losing vs. Supporting an Employee on CPAP
Scenario 1: No Support → Employee Loss
An employee diagnosed with OSA is told they must use CPAP therapy to stay compliant and keep their job. They’re given the machine - and little else.
-
Common outcome:
-
Struggles with the mask, machine, comfort, efficacy
-
Feels overwhelmed, frustrated, and unsupported
-
Therapy fails → non-compliance → job loss
-
-
Business costs:
-
Recruitment: $8,000–$15,000
-
Onboarding/training: $4,000+
-
Productivity gap: 3–6 months of lost output
-
Cultural cost: morale drop for the team
-
Reputation: potential union/HR scrutiny or workplace tension
-
Estimated total loss: $20,000–$30,000 per employee
(And that’s not counting the cost of an incident caused by fatigue before they left.)
Scenario 2: Supported CPAP User → Engaged Employee
The same employee receives tailored support:
-
A clear, personalised plan
-
Therapy support and check-ins
-
Emotional reassurance and problem-solving
-
Ongoing communication and education
-
Common outcome:
-
Feels seen, supported, and capable
-
Achieves compliance
-
Stays on the job - alert, rested, and more productive
-
-
Business benefits:
-
No turnover cost
-
Increased focus and energy
-
Boost in team morale (especially when others see the support)
-
Strong compliance documentation
-
Fewer WHS risks and incidents
-
Estimated ROI: 5–10% increase in productivity, + retention of a trained employee
Bottom Line:
Investing ~$1,450 per person in support can save you 10–20x that in avoidable costs. More importantly, it keeps good people in jobs they’re capable of doing — when given the right care.
