Abstract
Background: For years, there has been a high level of activity in creating networks in workplace health promotion (WHP). So far, there have only been a few evaluations of these network formations. The aim of this study was to evaluate networks in WHP using the example of the regional network "Gesunde Betriebe Kinzigtal" (Healthy Companies Kinzigtal). The network supports companies in the Kinzigtal in the implementation and realisation of WHP.
Method: By means of an online survey, responsible employees of the participating companies evaluated the network and the measures for WHP. The focus was on the constructs of satisfaction and benefit as well as the perception of networks in WHP.
Result: Of the 21 companies participating in the network, 13 took part in the study, which corresponds to a response rate of 62%. The analysis showed a positive evaluation of the network activities. The companies were satisfied with the network "Gesunde Betriebe Kinzigtal" as well as the measures for WHP and derived a benefit from it. Furthermore, the companies perceived the network as helpful and participation in it as beneficial.
Conclusion: Networks provide support for the introduction and long-term implementation of WHP.
