Abstract

Worksite health enhancement programs utilize screening and early disease detection or risk reduction as health promotion activities. Objectives for these include improving the health and productivity of employees and reducing health care costs. However, critical questions about the effectiveness of programs should be answered before managers initiate these activities. Issues include accuracy of measurement and subject classification, adequate use of comparisons and follow-up in evaluation studies, and evidence of cost effectiveness.
