The Maui Worksite Wellness Policy Initiative was evaluated utilizing a baseline and follow-up study to improve the prevalence and awareness of worksite wellness for Maui employers following the Maui Worksite Wellness Summit intervention.
To evaluate a worksite wellness intervention.
Worksites that attended the Maui Worksite Wellness Summit with a pre- and post-test design.
Worksite characteristics and worksite wellness components (infrastructure, physical activity, and nutrition) were measured using a Likert-scale survey.
Repeated measures analysis of variance was used to compare the pre- and post-tests.
The baseline sample was comprised of 9 businesses, and the number of full-time employees ranged from 3 to 715; the follow-up sample was comprised of 7 businesses, and the number of full-time employees ranged from 3 to 750. Results indicated that majority (71.43%) of worksites improved their worksite wellness policies, 85.71% improved their infrastructure, 71.43% increased their support for physical activity policies, and 57.14% improved their support for nutrition policies after the Maui worksite wellness summit.
Based on this study, future efforts should comprise of a larger sample, more rigorous methodology, and longer duration.

评估一项工作场所健康干预措施。
参加毛伊岛工作场所健康峰会的工作场所，采用前后测试设计。
使用李克特量表调查来衡量工作场所特征和工作场所健康组成部分（基础设施、体育活动和营养）。
采用重复测量方差分析来比较前后测试结果。
基线样本包括9家企业，全职员工人数在3至715人之间；随访样本包括7家企业，全职员工人数在3至750人之间。结果表明，在毛伊岛工作场所健康峰会后，大多数（71.43%）工作场所改进了其工作场所健康政策，85.71%改进了基础设施，71.43%增加了对体育活动政策的支持，57.14%改进了对营养政策的支持。
基于本研究，未来的努力应包括更大的样本量、更严格的方法和更长的持续时间。
