Three weight loss competitions were held in business/industrial settings. One competition was between three banks; the other two were within industries, either between employee teams selected at random or between divisions of the industry. Attrition in the competitions was less than 1 per cent and weight loss averaged 5.5 kg. Both employees and management reported positive changes in morale and employee/management relations, and both considered the competition important to the success of the program. The cost-effectiveness ratio ($ 2.93 per 1 per cent reduction in percentage overweight) is the best yet reported.
在商业/工业环境中举办了三场减肥竞赛。一场竞赛在三家银行之间进行;另外两场在行业内部进行,参赛队伍要么是随机挑选的员工团队,要么是行业内的各个部门。竞赛中的人员流失率不到1%,平均减重5.5千克。员工和管理层都表示士气以及员工/管理层关系有了积极变化,双方都认为竞赛对项目的成功很重要。成本效益比(每降低1%的超重比例花费2.93美元)是迄今所报道的最佳数据。
