Should the government offer weight-loss injections to unemployed people to boost workforce participation?

A University of York study of over 284,000 UK Biobank participants found obesity reduces employment probability by 4.2 percentage points overall and 6.6 points for men, keeping around 600,000 Britons out of work. Obesity costs the UK an estimated £31 billion yearly in lost productivity. The government is piloting weight-loss injections for unemployed people.
