Organisational readiness for workplace bullying interventions
Purpose Workplace bullying is a severe psychosocial stressor with detrimental effects on individual well-being. This has led calls for more evidence on effective interventions to address workplace bullying. While some evidence exists on intervention effectiveness, systematic reviews do not yet show compelling evidence of intervention success. Currently lacking is an understanding of the context–intervention fit of bullying interventions and wheth…
Supporting employers and their employees with mental hEalth conditions to remain eNgaged and producTive at wORk (Mentor)
Employees with mental health conditions often struggle to remain in employment. During the COVID-19 pandemic, these employees faced additional stressors, including worsening mental health and work productivity. In 2020, as part of a larger programme of work called the Mental Health and Productivity Pilot (MHPP), we developed a new early intervention (MENTOR) that jointly involved employees, managers, and a new professional (Mental Health Employme…
Developing Self-Compassion in Healthcare Professionals Utilising a Brief Online Intervention
(1) Background: The level of stress experienced by staff in the healthcare sector is highly prevalent and well documented. Self-compassion may support the health and wellbeing of individuals and enable them to stay well at work. This study aimed to understand whether a brief, online, self-guided, novel intervention improved the health and wellbeing of healthcare professionals. (2) Methods: In a parallel randomised controlled trial, a volunteer sa…
Examining young people’s views and understanding of traffic light and physical activity calorie equivalent (Pace) food labels
PACE labelling may be easier for young people to understand and more appealing/useful to them than traffic light labelling. PACE labelling may help young people choose healthier food/drinks and reduce excess energy consumption. Research is now needed to understand the impact of PACE labelling on food choice among adolescents in real eating settings
Meta-synthesis of qualitative research on the barriers and facilitators to implementing workplace mental health interventions
There has been a rapid increase in the number of mental health interventions implemented in the workplace. The efficacy of these interventions has been mixed. The factors influencing implementation may offer insights to why some interventions fail to be effective. We conducted a meta-synthesis of qualitative research on the barriers and facilitators to implementing workplace mental health interventions. We evaluated the quality of evidence using …
The Cost-Effectiveness of the SMART Work & Life Intervention for Reducing Sitting Time
Sedentary behaviours continue to increase and are associated with heightened risks of morbidity and mortality. We assessed the cost-effectiveness of SMART Work & Life (SWAL), an intervention designed to reduce sitting time inside and outside of work, both with (SWAL-desk) and without (SWAL-only) a height-adjustable workstation compared to usual practice (control) for UK office workers. Health outcomes were assessed in quality-adjusted life-years …
Managing Minds at Work
Mental ill-health is the leading cause of sickness absence, creating a high economic burden. Workplace interventions aimed at supporting employers in the prevention of mental ill-health in the workforce are urgently required. Managing Minds at Work is a digital intervention aimed at supporting line managers in promoting better mental health at work through a preventative approach. This intervention was developed as part of the Mental Health and P…
The personal and institutional impacts of a mass participation leadership programme for women working in Higher Education
During the last eight years, over 8000 academic faculty and professional services women working in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland have participated in a women-only leadership in higher education programme called Aurora. The organization that designed and delivers the programme (Advance HE) sees it as an important force for change in the sector. However, the potential for meaningful change in traditionally male domains through grea…
A Cost and Cost-Benefit Analysis of the Stand More at Work (Smart Work) Intervention
This study conducted a cost and cost-benefit analysis of the Stand More AT (SMArT) Work workplace intervention, designed to reduce sitting time. The study was a cluster two-armed randomised controlled trial involving 37 office clusters (146 desk-based workers) in a National Health Service Trust. The intervention group received a height-adjustable workstation with supporting behaviour change strategies. The control group continued with usual pract…

Work engagement and its association with occupational sitting time
Being actively engaged in one's work is associated with lower occupational sitting times for men (vigor and dedication) and to a limited extent for women (vigor only). This suggests that interventions such as introducing sit-stand workstations to reduce sitting times, may be beneficial for work engagement

Can physical activity help to maintain cognitive functioning and psychosocial well-being among breast cancer patients treated with chemotherapy? A randomised controlled trial
Evidence suggests chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer is associated with side effects such as cognitive impairment in domains of memory, attention, concentration and executive function. Cognitive impairments reported by patients have been associated with higher levels of emotional distress. To date, intervention studies to alleviate cognitive impairment associated with chemotherapy have focused on psycho-educational techniques or cognitive t…
Acceptance of repeat worksite HIV voluntary counselling and testing in a rural South African factory
In response to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) pandemic, many employers in sub-Saharan Africa have introduced voluntary counselling and testing (VCT) for HIV. To assess the factors that predict repeat VCT attendance at 12-month follow-up we analysed data from a nurse-administered questionnaire that was distributed to factory workers in a rural South African factory. Employees were offered VCT for HIV in 2009 and again 12 months later. Odds…
Using intervention mapping to develop a work-related guidance tool for those affected by cancer
Intervention Mapping is a valuable protocol for designing complex guidance tools. The process and design of this particular tool can lend itself to other situations both occupational and more health-care based

The nature of attentional differences between groups of children differentiated by teacher ratings of attention and hyperactivity
Two groups of children, one with good attention and low hyperactivity and the other with poor attention and high hyperactivity, were formed on the basis of teachers' ratings. The groups were tested on a large number of tests of attentional performance, covering selective attention, divided attention, sustained attention and executive function. Analysis of group differences, with verbal and non-verbal intelligence controlled statistically, indicat…
