Effectiveness of worksite wellness programs based on physical activity to improve workers' health and productivity: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Although the scientific literature has previously described the impact of worksite programs based on physical activity (WPPAs) on employees' productivity and health in different contexts, the effect of these programs has not been analyzed based on the characteristics or modalities of physical activity (PA) performed (e.g., aerobic exercise, strength training, flexibility). In addition, studies on WPPAs usually report health and productivity outcomes separately, not integrated into a single study. Knowing the health and economic-related impacts of a WPPAs could provide useful information for stakeholders and policy development.

Objective

The purpose of this review was as follows: (1) to analyze the effect of different modalities of WPPAs on employees' productivity
