| Resumen |
Primary prevention programmes at the worksite that include a web-based health risk assessment (HRA) with tailored feedback hold the advantage of simultaneously increasing awareness of risk and enhancing initiation of health-behaviour change. This study evaluated initial health-behaviour change among employees who voluntarily participated in such a HRA programme. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 2289 employees who voluntarily participated in a HRA programme at seven Dutch worksites between 2007 and 2009. The HRA included a web-based questionnaire, biometric measurements, laboratory evaluation and tailored feedback. The survey questionnaire assessed initial self-reported health-behaviour change and satisfaction with the web-based HRA, and was e-mailed four weeks after employees completed the HRA. More than half of the employees who voluntarily participated in a web-based HRA with tailored feedback, reported to have initiated health-behaviour change. Self-reported initiation of health-behaviour change was more frequent among those at high cardiovascular disease risk and BMI levels. These findings indicate that among voluntary participating employees, a web-based HRA with tailored feedback may motivate those in greatest need of health-behaviour change and may be a valuable component of workplace health promotion programmes. |
