| Abstract |
This paper discusses the following 10 dimensions of worksite wellness programmes: (1) establishment of programme policy; (2) work force health status assessment; (3) linkage of worksite with service providers; (4) linkage of individual employees with appropriate services; (5) provision of options for behaviour change strategies and interventions; (6) engagement of employees in these interventions; (7) organisation of worksite-wide activities to support health improvement; (8) review and alteration of organisational policies to make the work environment more supportive of health; (9) on-going programme evaluation; (10) periodic assessment of longer-term programme results. Two future dimensions are described that require further evidence of impact. |
