To study whether workplace social relations explain use of worksite health promotion (WHP), by examining colleagues' and team managers' WHP encouragement of a healthy lifestyle, and colleague WHP uptake.
Multilevel data came from the second wave of the European Sustainable Workforce Survey (4345 employees of 402 team in 9 countries). Linear probability models were used to test use of two types of WHP: healthy menus and sport facilities.
Employees are more likely to use healthy menus and sport facilities when more colleagues do so too and when colleagues encourage a healthy lifestyle. Surprisingly, encouragement by one's manager plays no role.
Social contact among colleagues can facilitate WHP use, and WHP initiatives should pay attention to the influential role of colleagues.
通过考察同事和团队经理对健康生活方式的 WHp 鼓励,以及同事 WHp 的参与度,研究工作场所社会关系是否可以解释 WHp 的使用。
多层次数据来自欧洲可持续劳动力调查的第二波调查(9 个国家的 402 个团队的 4345 名员工)。线性概率模型用于测试两种 WHp 的使用情况:健康菜单和体育设施。
当更多的同事这样做,当同事鼓励健康的生活方式时,员工更有可能使用健康菜单和体育设施。令人惊讶的是,经理的鼓励没有作用。
同事之间的社会接触可以促进 WHp 的使用,WHp 计划应该注意到同事的影响力。
