Little is understood about the mechanisms for improving the adoption and implementation of Total Worker Health® (TWH) in workplace settings. The primary objective of this study was to identify whether the delivery of TWH advising is associated with subsequent changes in TWH in small-to-medium sized businesses.
We conducted a longitudinal study of a TWH intervention in 200 organizations completing Health Links Healthy Workplace Assessments™ between October 2016 and December 2019. Organizations were offered consultation via telephonic and live web-based advising sessions.
Organizations exhibited non-significant albeit positive change in assessment scores from baseline to assessment 2. Businesses receiving advising showed significant score improvements from assessment 2 to 3, versus those without advising.
TWH consultation may enhance adoption of organizational behaviors that promote worker health, safety, and well-being over time.
对于如何改善全面职工健康(Total Worker Health®,TWH)在工作场所环境中的采用和实施,我们知之甚少。本研究的主要目的是确定 TWH 咨询的提供是否与中小企业中随后 TWH 的变化相关。
我们对 200 家在 2016 年 10 月至 2019 年 12 月间完成健康链接健康工作场所评估(Health Links Healthy Workplace Assessments™)的组织进行了一项 TWH 干预的纵向研究。为组织提供了电话和在线实时咨询服务。
从基线评估到第 2 次评估,组织的评估分数显示出非显著但积极的变化。与没有咨询的组织相比,接受咨询的企业从第 2 次评估到第 3 次评估的得分显著提高。
随着时间的推移,TWH 咨询可能会增强促进员工健康、安全和福祉的组织行为的采用。
