目的:评价为期3年的工作场所干预计划对突尼斯苏塞省职工主要非传染性疾病危险因素(营养不良、缺乏运动和吸烟)的控制效果。方法:我们在突尼斯苏塞省的6家公司进行了准实验研究(干预前后评估和对照组)。该干预计划包括健康教育项目(如工作坊、电影和开放宣传日)。我们还安排了免费的体育活动和免费的戒烟咨询。结果:我们的干预项目显示,员工的饮食和体育活动行为有了显著改善,但吸烟行为没有改善。结论:工作场所是促进健康的关键环境,未来的项目应考虑采用多部门方法来控制主要的非传染性疾病危险因素。
Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 3-year workplace-based intervention program on the control of the main noncommunicable disease risk factors (poor nutrition, physical inactivity, and tobacco use) among the employees of Sousse, Tunisia.Methods:We conducted a quasi-experimental study (pre- and postassessments with intervention and control groups) in six companies of the governorate of Sousse in Tunisia.The intervention program consisted of health education programs (eg, workshops, films and open sensitization days). We also scheduled free physical activity sessions and free smoking cessation consultations.Results:Our intervention program showed meaningful improvement among the employees toward dietary and physical activity behaviors but not for tobacco use.Conclusions:Workplace is a crucial setting for health promotion, and future programs should consider a multisectoral approach to control the main noncommunicable disease risk factors.
