Overarching Conceptual Model• Interventions will lead to changes in
knowledge and psychosocial factors that mediate or moderate:hazard reductions & behavior change– We focus particularly on improved social support
and reduced job stress, that will in turn produce:• hazard reductions• safer work behaviors• improved lifestyle choices• better psychological and physical health
TWH Interventions aimed at HP + OSH risk factors & outcomes

Oregon Healthy Workforce CenterTheme: Intervention Effectiveness (RCTs)• Team-based TWH intervention in home care workers
• Team-based TWH intervention in corrections officers
• “ work-life balance+safety in city construction wkrs
• commercial construction wkrs
• Talking Safety + social media in young workers –City parks & recreation department

Intervention MethodsIntervention Impact point
– Organization– Supervisor– Employee
Methods• Education/training
– Computer-based– In person (facillitated)– Scripted, Team-based
• Team processes• Incentives for participation• Practice & goal setting
Hammer - city construction
Anger – private construction
Kuehl –corrections workers
Olson – home care workers

Critical Results/Interventions• Team Effectiveness training + safety and
emotional support training + practice:– improved HP variables (diastolic BP)– improved safety outcomes
• Team processes using scripted trainingin Home Care Workers:– reduced sugary drinks– increased good cholesterol– increased safety behaviors
(tool use vs. lifting)

Critical Results/Interventions• Corrections: Highest WC claims and
absenteeism rates of state employees– Improved diastolic BP– increased eating fruits and vegetables– reduced total cholesterol and percent fat
• Young worker project: Over 220 P&R have taken NIOSH’s Talking Safety converted to computer-based training – they liked it, learned from it, and recommendedthat others take it

Effectiveness of Total Worker Health Interventions
• HP & OSH intervention + HP & OSH measures• 17 published studies met criteria• 16 improved risk factors for injuries/chronic
illnesses; 4 improved 10 or more risk factors• Several reported sustained improvements
> 1 year• 1 available for dissemination• While some described integrated programs, in
their methods sections, none reportedmetrics or evidence of integrationof HP & OSH interventions

Education• Summer Institute on
Occupational Health Psychology• National Corrections Conference (1st)• Summer Intern program• Chalk Talks
![Page 9: Oregon Healthy WorkForce Center - The Eagleson Institute › content › confrences › TWH2014... · Oregon Healthy WorkForce Center Kent Anger (Director) Leslie Hammer (Associate](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062506/5f02ee237e708231d406b6d4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Outreach• Resource Directory and Call-in line• Exhibits at Oregon OSHA conferences• Partnerships with WC Insurance companies,
societies to teach about TWH• Sponsorship of large TWH meetings• Partner’s Luncheons• Blog and Social Media
![Page 10: Oregon Healthy WorkForce Center - The Eagleson Institute › content › confrences › TWH2014... · Oregon Healthy WorkForce Center Kent Anger (Director) Leslie Hammer (Associate](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062506/5f02ee237e708231d406b6d4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Challenges• Defining TWH• Keeping up with private industry as they
implement HP and sometimes TWH• Identifying the right populations to study – how
do you do controls• Safety is about rules and HP is about doing
fun things• An effective model for broad dissemination
![Page 11: Oregon Healthy WorkForce Center - The Eagleson Institute › content › confrences › TWH2014... · Oregon Healthy WorkForce Center Kent Anger (Director) Leslie Hammer (Associate](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062506/5f02ee237e708231d406b6d4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Gaps• Evidence that integration is important• Toolkits available for dissemination• An effective model for broad dissemination of
evidence-based programs• D&T research
![Page 12: Oregon Healthy WorkForce Center - The Eagleson Institute › content › confrences › TWH2014... · Oregon Healthy WorkForce Center Kent Anger (Director) Leslie Hammer (Associate](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062506/5f02ee237e708231d406b6d4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Conclusions• Team processes are effective at producing
workplace change - attend
• Promise of simultaneous improvements in safety, health and well-being leads to call for TWH research to identify / disseminate best practices – see our OHWC exhibit
