Objective: The aim of this study was to describe the content of a multiyear
market-based workplace health promotion (WHP) program and to evaluate
design and implementation processes in a real-world setting. Methods: Data
was collected from the databases of the employer and the service provider. It
was classified using the 4-S (Size, Scope, Scalability, and Sustainability) and
PIPE Impact Metric (Penetration, Implementation) models. Data analysis
utilized both qualitative and quantitative methods. Results: Program design
covered well the evidence-informed best practices except for clear path
toward sustainability, cooperation with occupational health care, and support
from middle-management supervisors. The penetration rate among participants
was high (99%) and majority (81%) of services were implemented as
designed. Conclusion: Study findings indicate that WHP market would
benefit the use of evidence-based design principles and tendentious decisions
to anticipate a long-term implementation process already during the planning
phase.
