Proposed Project
CDC Work@Health[supreg] Program: Phase 2 Training and Technical
Assistance Evaluation (OMB No. 0920-1006, exp. date 1/31/2016)--
Revision--National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is continuing
to make available the Work@Health[supreg] 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[supreg] 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; and 3)
Increase the number of science-based worksite health programs,
policies, and practices in place in participating employers' worksites
resulting in opportunities for employees to participate in them.
CDC is requesting OMB approval to continue Phase 2 information
collection with new cohorts of respondents in 2016-2019. Phase 2
procedures were informed by a needs assessment and pilot test that were
conducted in fall 2013 (``CDC Work@Health[supreg] Program: Phase 1,''
OMB No. 0920-0989, exp. 9/30/2014) as well as first year results. 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 480 employers and approximately 120 individuals who are
interested in becoming trained/certified instructors for the
Work@Health[supreg] Program. In addition, information will be collected
from approximately 600 participant who receive training delieverd by
the trained/certified instructors. Respondents will include employers/
employees, trainees who participate in
[[Page 79592]]
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[supreg] 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 continue to identify and improve 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 three years. Participation in
Work@Health[supreg] is voluntary and there are no costs to participants
other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are
1,047.
