abstract: 'The workplace is an effective channel for disseminating health promotion
|
||||
|
||||
interventions,(1) and it is becoming an increasingly important vehicle
|
||||
|
||||
for reaching women. In the United States, 54\% of women over 18 work
|
||||
|
||||
outside the home. Bureau of Labor projections indicate that by the year
|
||||
|
||||
2005, women will be entering the workforce at a faster rate than men.
|
||||
|
||||
Manufacturing worksites, in particular, offer an effective means of
|
||||
|
||||
reaching women who are underserved, undereducated, and from lower income
|
||||
|
||||
strata. The worksite may play a particularly important role in reaching
|
||||
|
||||
these underserved women because they may have less access to traditional
|
||||
|
||||
channels for health care and prevention. However, poor participation in
|
||||
|
||||
worksite programs is often cited as a major contributor to less than
|
||||
|
||||
optimal outcomes in worksite-based programs.
|
||||
|
||||
Little is known about the determinants of participation in worksite
|
||||
|
||||
health promotion programs. In addition, there is no common definition of
|
||||
|
||||
`''participation,'''' which adds to the confusion in this literature.(2)
|
||||
|
||||
While it is difficult to make comparisons across data that use different
|
||||
|
||||
definitions of participation, several recurrent themes exist.
|
||||
|
||||
Demographic characteristics tend to predict participation in worksite
|
||||
|
||||
health promotion programs. Younger employees, those with higher
|
||||
|
||||
education levels, and women are more likely to participate,(2,6)
|
||||
|
||||
although men are more likely to participate in fitness programs.(7,8)
|
||||
|
||||
Organizational or worksite-level factors that promote individual
|
||||
|
||||
participation in health promotion programs are less clear. Top
|
||||
|
||||
management support, willingness to allow attendance on company time, and
|
||||
|
||||
line supervisor permission to attend programs all seem to play a role in
|
||||
|
||||
facilitating participation. Although the importance of organizational
|
||||
|
||||
factors has been acknowledged,(2,6,9-11) the systematic study of how
|
||||
|
||||
these factors differentially predict participation by
|
||||
|
||||
gender-occupational characteristics, age, and health status has only
|
||||
|
||||
recently begun.(12,13)
|
||||
|
||||
The Working Well Trial, a randomized trial of worksite health
|
||||
|
||||
promotion,12 13 offers a unique opportunity to investigate factors
|
||||
|
||||
influencing participation in health promotion programs. In one of the
|
||||
|
||||
four participating study centers (Brown University), it was observed
|
||||
|
||||
that 57\% of women employed in participating companies did not attend
|
||||
|
||||
any of the intervention activities. These data indicated that the
|
||||
|
||||
program was not effectively reaching a large percentage of the women
|
||||
|
||||
employed in these companies. As a result, the present study was designed
|
||||
|
||||
to investigate the facilitators and barriers to women''s participation in
|
||||
|
||||
worksite health promotion.'
