Abstract
Description
The focus of this review is on workplace wellbeing programmes. These are a subset of
workplace health programmes, and include single or dual focus programmes (e.g. physical
activity, dietary behaviour and weight management; smoking and alcohol behaviours;
stress, anxiety and depression) and multi-focus programmes. Multi-focus programmes are
often referred to in the literature as workplace health promotion programmes, and
workplace or organisational wellness programmes. They involve a combination of physical
activity, weight, nutrition and physical activity, stress management and anxiety/depression,
and lifestyle interventions. This review focused on two questions in relation to workplace
wellbeing programmes: Do they have a favourable effect? Are they worth the investment?
