Título Management views of health promotion needs
Título original Etude de besoins en matière de promotion de la santé - La perspective de dirigeants d'entreprises [en francés]
Información bibliográfica Spring 1991, Vol.7, No.1, p.S-2 to S-9. Illus. 26 ref.
Resumen A questionnaire was administered to 52 high-ranking executives to study management views on health promotion needs. Executives listed anti-smoking, nutrition and physical activities as being the most beneficial health promotion areas to their enterprise and its employees. Twenty-five executives mentioned the profitability of their enterprise and 19 the improvement of employees' health as being their main reasons for undertaking such activities. Results from a logistic regression analysis showed individual characteristics of the enterprise to have an influence on the existence of worksite health promotion activities but not on the willingness of executives to collaborate in their implementation. It appears that these activities are considered justified by the majority of high-ranking officers interviewed but that many of them are reluctant to engage in such activities until efficiency criteria are established.
