Designing, Implementing and Evaluating Sustainable Interventions in Organizations offers a systematic approach to fostering worker health and well-being through participatory organizational interventions. These types of interventions address the underlying root causes of workplace stressors and give workers a voice in prioritizing needed changes. Synthesizing evidence of best practices, this book describes the six intervention phases included in the Nielsen Intervention Model: Preparation, Evaluation Planning, Screening, Action Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation. Two case studies provide concrete methods and tools and illustrate the ways in which context can require variations in planning, implementation, and evaluation. The book also engages in a broad examination of the implications of social policies and regulatory environments for intervention practices. This evidence-based and step-by-step approach to build healthy organizational work environments is an essential toolkit for improving well-being on the job.
