Abstract: | The extent to which employees rely on the worksite exclusively for health promotion programs was examined in a cross-sectional study of 10 federal worksites. Responses were received from 3,403 of the 5,757 employees surveyed (59%). Fewer than 10% of employees exclusively used agency programs for physical fitness, nutrition, substance abuse, smoking cessation, and support group meetings. A higher percentage participated in health risk assessment (27%), health and disease risk education activities (17%), medical care services (23%), personal safety and first aid training 26%, and stress management programs (17%) only at the worksite. Men were more likely than women to participate exclusively in workplace programs. |
