Workplace-based opportunities to support child care workers’ health and safety
2020, Preventive Medicine ReportsCitation Excerpt :The Workplace Health and Safety Assessment was created specifically for the CARE trial to assess centers’ efforts to support worker health and safety, including: infrastructure, policies and procedures, programs and promotions, and environmental supports. Several existing instruments were reviewed (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2014; Department of Health Services, 2018; Oldenburg et al., 2002; Abrams et al., 1994). Items drew primarily from the CDC Worksite Health Scorecard (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2014) and the Wisconsin Worksite Wellness Resource Kit (Department of Health Services, 2018).
Level of physical activity and eating behavior: Risk factors associated with sedentariness among obese employees of a company in the city of Kinshasa province, Democratic Republic of Congo
2019, Science and SportsCitation Excerpt :In addition, the cost to the employer of the morbidity attributed to non-communicable diseases is increasing rapidly. The workplace should be used to make healthy eating choices and encourage exercise [7,8]. The change in lifestyle, with the increasingly sedentary nature of professional activities, the motorization of means of transport and household chores, has been accompanied by a decrease in physical expenditure of the population.
Workplace health and safety intervention for child care staff: Rationale, design, and baseline results from the CARE cluster randomized control trial
2018, Contemporary Clinical TrialsCitation Excerpt :A Workplace Health and Safety Assessment (WHSA) is conducted using a combination of director interview and environmental observation. The WHSA was developed specifically for this study to ensure relevancy within child care; however, content development for items was guided by existing tools such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Worksite Health Score Card [63] and Wisconsin's Worksite Wellness Resource Kit [64], as well as protocols employed in the Working Well Trial [65]. The WHSA assesses five key elements of a comprehensive health promotion program (i.e., administrative supports, health education opportunities, environmental supports, linkages with other health programs, screening, and adequate follow-up) [17].

2014, Journal of Substance Abuse TreatmentCitation Excerpt :Models for implementing sustainable smoking cessation services and programs in community-based organizations emphasize the importance of partnering with community organizations and integrating new services within the existing institutional fabric, ensuring efficacy and cost effectiveness of the program, and providing adequate training (DePue & Linnan, 2003). Attending carefully to these kinds of systemic issues has resulted in successfully implementing smoking cessation services in a variety of settings, for example in worksites (Abrams et al., 1994), substance use treatment clinics (Hurt, Croghan, Offord, Eberman, & Morse, 1995), and primary care offices (Ockene et al., 1991). A critical first step is to conduct an initial assessment of the organizational setting in question to identify existing policies about smoking and perceptions of smoking and smoking cessation; to determine feasibility of implementing smoking cessation services in that setting; and to discover barriers to implementation (see DePue & Linnan, 2003).
