Extending Service Delivery (ESD) found a lack of research into the business case for investment in employee health services by companies in developing countries. In 2006, ESD conducted a study to evaluate the return on investment (ROI) of providing health services at a garment factory site in Bangladesh. The study examined the effect of available on-site health services on employee absenteeism and turnover, workers' perceptions of the on-site clinic services, and attitudes toward their employer.
