The Impact Of Food Allergies
Food Allergy Families Lose 1,000+ Hours in Productivity a Year
Food allergies are a rising problem across the globe, affecting 32 million Americans and resulting in up to 30,000 emergency room visits and up to 200 fatal food anaphylaxis reactions annually.
The constant fear of allergic reaction, the isolation from missed social events, and the trauma of past reactions can evoke feelings of hopelessness for many food allergy families. In a survey of food allergy parents, more than 60% of participants said their child’s food allergy had a significant impact on their mental health.
For Families
A 2013 study estimated that the total annual cost of food allergies in the US is nearly $25 billion. That is $4,000+ per child. Food allergy costs include medical visits, out-of-pocket costs, lost labor productivity, and lost opportunity costs ($14.2 billion). With current inflation, these costs are only increasing.
For Employers
With many food allergy parents having to leave their careers or miss work to accommodate their child’s needs, this can become costly for employers. It is estimated that unscheduled absenteeism costs $3,600 per year for each hourly worker & $2,660 each year for salaried employees. The cost of replacing an individual employee who has left the workforce can range from one-half to two times the employee’s annual salary.
Food allergy parents spend thousands of hours a year sourcing safe foods, reading labels, attending doctor visits, chaperoning school events, and other food allergy related activities.
Calculating The Impact
About 8% of children have food allergies and roughly 3% manage food anaphylaxis. Parents with food-allergic children experience higher rates of absenteeism and lost productivity. Amongst parents with food-anaphylactic children, 10% will have to leave their employment to accommodate their child.
The cost of replacing an individual employee can range from one-half to two times the employee’s annual salary (Gallup, 2019). The average annual salary across the U.S. is $59,428 (Forbes Advisor, 2023), which means replacing a single employee may cost upwards of $120,000.
1,000 Employee Case Study
In a population of 1,000 employees with children, 80 families will have a child with food allergies. Three families will have a child with severe food anaphylaxis. These employees are likely to struggle with performance and productivity, take more unplanned days off, and stall in their professional growth.
Of those families with food anaphylaxis, 1 will likely have to leave their current employment resulting in approximately $30,000 to $120,000 turnover cost. Coupled with absenteeism costs ($3,600 per hourly employee and $2,650 per salaried employee per year according to Circadian, 2021) and lost productivity, the cost of food allergies is well over $250,000 per 1,000 employees annually.
