“…Risk factors that can lead to cardiometabolic syndrome include high blood pressure or blood sugar, low cholesterol, abnormal heartbeat, and obesity. Cardiometabolic syndrome can result in heart disease, diabetes, and stroke, as well as death (Cannon, 2007; Srivastava, ; National Institutes of Health, National Heart, Lung, & Blood Institute, ), and has become a global pandemic (Kelli, Kassas, & Lattouf, ). Given its prominence, it is important to understand how work factors such as WLC might contribute to employee experience of cardiometabolic risk factors, which explains the growing body of research on this topic.…”
