Lifestyle counselling by Dutch occupational health professionals and its determinants: A cross-sectional study
While a significant number of Dutch OHPs practise lifestyle counselling, there is room for improvement by addressing barriers and enhancing self-efficacy. Training and structural support are recommended to increase the prevalence and quality of lifestyle counselling and referrals to CLI. This study highlights the importance of integrating lifestyle medicine into occupational health to prevent chronic illnesses such as obesity, and improve employe…
Gender differences in mental health-related sickness absence in the education sector
Using a large dataset, we find significant differences in absence duration between employees in the education sector and those in other sectors. Other factors, such as gender, also influence sickness absence duration, but to a lesser extent. Notably, the gender effect on absence duration is smaller in the education sector compared to other sectors
Business Results and Well-Being: An Engaging Leadership Intervention Study
The present quasi-experimental study tested the business impact of a leadership development program focusing on psychological well-being through the satisfaction of basic psychological needs. Based on the concept of engaging leadership and self-determination theory, the 8-month program targeted midlevel team leaders of the customer fulfilment center of a health systems multinational organization. The program was designed in co-creation between se…
Process evaluation of a problem solving intervention to prevent recurrent sickness absence in workers with common mental disorders
Job Crafting at the Team and Individual Level: Implications for Work Engagement and Performance
Previous research suggests that employee job crafting is positively related to job performance through employee work engagement. The present study expands this individual-level perspective to the team level by hypothesizing that team job crafting relates positively to team performance through team work engagement. In addition, on the basis of social psychological theories about norms, modeling, and emotional contagion in groups, we hypothesize th…
External validation of two prediction models identifying employees at risk of high sickness absence: Cohort study with 1-year follow-up
The SA episodes model accurately predicted the risk of high SA episodes in office workers, but needs further multisite validation and requires a simpler presentation format before it can be used to select high-risk employees for interventions to prevent or reduce SA
How changes in job demands and resources predict burnout, work engagement, and sickness absenteeism
The present longitudinal survey among 201 telecom managers supports the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model that postulates a health impairment process and a motivational process. As hypothesized, results of structural equation modeling analyses revealed that: (1) increases in job demands (i.e., overload, emotional demands, and work-home interference) and decreases in job resources (i.e., social support, autonomy, opportunities to learn, and feedb…
Workaholism, Burnout, and Work Engagement: Three of a Kind or Three Different Kinds of Employee Well‐being?
The present study investigated in a sample of 587 telecom managers whether workaholism, burnout, and work engagement—the supposed antipode of burnout—can be distinguished empirically. These three concepts were measured with existing, validated multi‐dimensional questionnaires. Structural equation modeling revealed that a slightly modified version of the hypothesised model that assumed three distinct yet correlated constructs—burnout, engagement, …
