Process evaluation of a Citizen Science approach in a Worksite Health Promotion Program to improve health in an occupational setting

Description

Active involvement of workers in the implementation of Worksite
Health Promotion Programs (WHP) is important to increase the
support, compliance and potential effect of the program. However,
most programs in an occupational setting lack the continuing
involvement of workers like a citizen science approach. This study
aims to evaluate the process of a Citizen Science approach in which the target group of workers have been actively involved in the design of the WHP. The study took place in a terminal and a construction company. Mixed methods using questionnaires and interviews were applied to evaluate the process of the Citizen Science approach. The Nielsen and Randall framework was used to cover process indicators on the intervention, context and mental models. The majority of employees felt actively involved, resulting in overall positive experience of the intervention and approach. Suggestions regarding the communication and tailoring were addressed to improve reach, satisfaction and readiness for change. The elements culture and events appeared to have a hindering effect on the facilitation and implementation of the intended intervention, such as a conservative attitude towards lifestyle change and the covid-19 outbreak. Overall, the Citizen Science approach and the resulting intervention was well received by the employees. Besides the room for improvement of reach, communication and readiness to change, the company’s culture and events appeared to play a vital role in the appeal, satisfaction and participation.
