Abstract Introduction: Health promotion in the workplace is a complex mul- tidimensional challenge involving individual employees and their relationships with the work environment. The assessment phase is the basis for planning and implementing a successful health promotion program. Purpose: To explore health status, lifestyle, four domains of college employees’ quality of life (QOL), and expectations of the workplace. Methods: Eighty faculty and 131administrative staff of Yezreel Val- ley College in northern Israel completed an electronic questionnaire. The questionnaire surveyed demographics, health status, and per- sonal lifestyle. A modified version of the QOL Index measured satis faction and importance in four domains, 25 aspects. Results: Health Status was good. Lifestyle: 30% reported/very good physical fitness; 72% regular physical activity; and 13% smoking. Almost all employees try to eat more fruits and vegetables and reduce sugar and calories. Only 5% ignore healthy nutrition. Total QOL score was 17.08 (out of max. 25), with family as the highest domain for both faculty and administrative staff, and significant differences in QOL in the social and economic domain (16.05 vs. 17.36, respective -ly). Two domains correlated positively with age, health/functioning and social/economic. Employees self-reporting in very good health and fitness, and non-smokers, perceived their total QOL as higher compared to those in poorer health, less physically fit, and smokers. Conclusion: This study provides a baseline assessment for plan- ning health promotion programs at the workplace, tailored to employee needs and expectations.","PeriodicalId":231467,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Practical & Professional Nursing","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123344586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
