Worksite health and wellness (WH&W) are gaining popularity in targeting cardiovascular (CV) risk factors among various industries. India is a large country with a larger workforce in the unorganized sector than the organized sector. This imbalance creates numerous challenges and barriers to implementation of WH&W programs in India. Large scale surveys have identified various CV risk factors across various industries. However, there is scarcity of published studies focusing on the effects of WH&W programs in India. This paper will highlight: 1) the current trend of CV risk factors across the industrial community, 2) the existing models of delivery for WH&W in India and their barriers, and 3) a concise evidence based review of various WH&W interventions in India.
工作场所健康与健康促进(Worksite Health and Wellness,简称 WH&W)在针对不同行业的心血管(Cardiovascular,简称 CV)风险因素方面越来越受欢迎。印度是一个大国,其非正规部门的劳动力比正规部门多。这种不平衡给印度实施 WH&W 计划带来了诸多挑战和障碍。大规模调查已经确定了各个行业的各种 CV 风险因素。然而,专注于印度 WH&W 计划效果的已发表研究却很少。本文将重点介绍:1)整个工业界 CV 风险因素的当前趋势,2)印度 WH&W 交付的现有模式及其障碍,以及 3)印度各种 WH&W 干预措施的简明基于证据的综述。
