Proposed Project
CDC Work@Health Program: Phase 2 Training and Technical Assistance
Evaluation--New--National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and
Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).
[[Page 71616]]
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is
establishing the Work@Health Program, a comprehensive worksite health
promotion training program, to support employers' efforts to create
healthy work environments and provide employees with opportunities to
make healthy lifestyle choices. The Work@Health Program will train and
support small, mid-size, and large employers with three primary goals:
(1) Increase understanding of the training needs of employers and the
best way to deliver skill-based training to them; (2) Increase
employers' level of knowledge and awareness of worksite health program
concepts and principles as well as tools and resources to support the
design, implementation, and evaluation of effective worksite health
strategies and interventions; and (3) Increase the number of science-
based worksite health programs, policies, and practices in place at
participating employers' worksites and increase the access and
opportunities for employees to participate in them.
CDC is requesting OMB approval to initiate Phase 2 information
collection. Phase 2 procedures were informed by a needs assessment and
pilot test that were conducted in fall 2013 (``CDC Work@Health Program:
Phase 1,'' OMB No. 0920-0989, exp. 9/30/2014). In Phase 2, CDC will
offer training in four models (formats): (1) A ``Hands-on'' instructor-
led workshop model (T1), (2) a self-paced ``Online'' model (T2), (3) a
combination or ``Blended'' model (T3), and (4) a ``Train-the-Trainer''
model (T4) designed to prepare qualified individuals to train employers
through the Hands-on, Online, or Blended models.
To evaluate the training, information will be collected from
approximately 540 employers and approximately 60 individuals who are
interested in becoming trained/certified instructors for the
Work@Health Program. Respondents will include employers/employees,
trainees who participate in the four training models, and training and
technical assistance instructors, coaches and subject matter experts.
CDC will use the information collected to evaluate the
effectiveness of the Work@Health Program in terms of (1) increasing
employer's knowledge and awareness of worksite health concepts,
principles, and resources and (2) increasing the number of science-
based worksite health programs, policies and practices in place at
participating employers' worksites. The information will also be used
to identify the best way(s) to deliver skill-based training and
technical support to employers in the area of worksite health.
OMB approval is requested for two years. Participation in
Work@Health is voluntary and there are no costs to participants other
than their time and cost of travel to the training. The total estimated
annualized burden hours are 1,601.
