• Description:
  The workplace gives us an opportunity to reach more than 60% of noninstitutionalized adults in the United States. A substantial body of evidence demonstrates the effectiveness of a range of workplace health promotion (WHP) and occupational safety and health (OSH) programs, but comparatively little research focuses on disseminating and implementing effective WHP and OSH programs. WHP and OSH traditionally operate in distinct silos; total worker health (TWH) programs provide an integrated approach that is gaining popularity but far from universal adoption. Partnerships between academic researchers, employers, governmental organizations, and for-profit and not-for-profit vendors are needed to identify (and create) effective WHP, OSH, and TWH programs; tailor them to meet the needs and capacities of employers and workers across size and industry categories; market them effectively; provide appropriate levels of implementation assistance; and evaluate impact and use the results to improve the programs and increase their reach.
