ABSTRACT

This study investigates the food habits and nutritional intake of bankers in Bauchi and its
metropolitan area, highlighting the impact of occupational stress and lifestyle on dietary
choices. A cross-sectional survey was conducted involving 138 bankers, utilizing structured
questionnaires to collect data on dietary patterns, meal frequency, and nutrient intake. The
findings reveal a high prevalence of unhealthy eating behaviors, characterized by excessive
consumption of processed foods, low fruit and vegetable intake, and irregular meal patterns.
Additionally, the analysis indicates significant correlations between long working hours,
sedentary lifestyles, and poor nutritional choices. The study underscores the need for targeted
nutritional education and workplace wellness programs aimed at promoting healthier eating
habits among bankers. These interventions could enhance overall health, reduce the risk of
chronic diseases, and improve job performance. Recommendations for policy changes and
further research are also discussed to address the dietary needs of this demographic,
contributing to a broader understanding of occupational health within the banking sector.
