Abstract

Because a high proportion (85%) of the U.S. adult population is employed, the worksite setting offers immense potential for health-promotion efforts (1). Successful worksite health-promotion programs have targeted nutrition, cholesterol reduction, and cancer prevention (2-4). As part of an effort to strengthen such programs in New Hampshire, the Division of Public Health Services (DPHS), New Hampshire State Department of Health and Human Services, in collaboration with the University of New Hampshire and CDC, conducted a statewide survey of worksites from March through July 1992 to characterize employee health services. This report summarizes findings on the proportion of worksites that offered health-promotion activities.
