Regular physical inactivity and excessive sedentary behaviour are public and population health concerns. The workplace is an ideal health promotion intervention setting to support employees, particularly office workers. Workplace assessments are a critical component of workplace health promotion programming. The aim of this project was to conduct a scoping review to systematically identify and describe workplace audit tools that assess physical activity and sedentary behaviour influences, as two independent behaviours, through a social ecological lens.
Fourteen electronic databases were searched for academic literature and 69 web-based resources were searched for grey literature in May 2017. English language workplace audit tools with items on physical activity or sedentary behaviour established in western countries were included. Key characteristics (ie, aim, type, health behaviour, validity, reliability and theory/model/framework) of the audit tools, checklists or questionnaires for office-based workplaces were identified, described and summarised.
The scoping review identified 21 relevant tools. Most tools focused on physical activity alone and did not address sedentary behaviour as a distinct behaviour. Few tools included items assessing physical activity and sedentary behaviour influences across multiple levels of the social ecological model. The most common social ecological focuses in the tools were policy and environmental influences.
Numerous workplace physical activity and/or sedentary behaviour audit tools were available. However, a gap was identified as tools and resources that assess and support organisational changes to influence physical activity and sedentary behaviour as two independent health behaviours across multiple social ecological levels within the workplace had not been developed.
缺乏规律的身体活动和过度的久坐行为是公共卫生和人群健康关注的问题。工作场所是支持员工（尤其是办公室工作人员）的理想健康促进干预场所。工作场所评估是工作场所健康促进规划的重要组成部分。本项目旨在进行范围综述，以系统地识别和描述通过社会生态学视角评估身体活动和久坐行为影响的工作场所评估工具，这两种行为是相互独立的。
于 2017 年 5 月在 14 个电子数据库中搜索学术文献，并在 69 个基于网络的资源中搜索灰色文献。纳入了具有西方国家身体活动或久坐行为项目的英文工作场所评估工具。确定、描述和总结了针对基于办公室工作场所的评估工具、清单或问卷的主要特征（即目的、类型、健康行为、有效性、可靠性和理论/模型/框架）。
范围综述确定了 21 个相关工具。大多数工具仅关注身体活动，而没有将久坐行为作为一种独立行为来解决。很少有工具包括评估身体活动和久坐行为影响的项目，这些影响跨越社会生态模型的多个层次。工具中最常见的社会生态重点是政策和环境影响。
有许多工作场所身体活动和/或久坐行为评估工具，但存在一个差距，即尚未开发出评估和支持组织变化的工具和资源，以在工作场所内多个社会生态层次上独立地影响身体活动和久坐行为。
