Assignment:
Firstly, you will need to undertake a database search to identify the current and relevant research about workplace-based health promotion.
You should access the literature which presents evidence about workplaces as a setting for health promotion. You can use quantitative, mixed methods and qualitative research, systematic reviews or meta-synthesis articles.
You should not include discussion articles, editorials or other journal articles which do not present research findings. The key to this assessment is sourcing 10 research articles (from the last 5 years), that is, articles which include an intervention of some type and report the findings of the intervention. Or, of course, systematic reviews or meta-synthesis articles. Other articles can be used over and above the 10 research articles.
As best you can, you should focus your literature review on the context of behaviour change, so for example, the culture of the organisation, shift work, role modelling, leadership, policy.
You should avoid focusing your literature review on a specific behaviour, for example, tobacco smoking or physical activity. If you need to use articles about a specific behavioural risk factor, you should analyse it within the context of behaviour change.
Your literature review should analyse research articles which report intervention findings about the social cultural context of behaviour change. You should consider workplace health promotion broadly as this will help with the other two assessment items.
You can focus your literature review on a specific industry, for example, mining or construction, if you propose to undertake Part B and Part C in this industry. Your decision maybe impacted by the number of relevant interventions articles you are able to source.
The most important thing is that you access intervention articles which report findings so you are accessing the current evidence base.
Collecting data can be considered an ‘intervention' if the article presents findings, for example, values and attitudes about a particular behavior.
Task:
Health promotion work place in a Hospital about 1000 words with at least 10 references.
