One out of four cancer deaths are caused by breast, cervical, or colon cancer. These cancers can be found early or prevented through cancer screening.<\/strong><\/p>

Does your workplace offer paid time off for cancer screenings? Employees may be more likely to get screened for cancer if they can take paid time off for screenings.
