Evaluation--New--National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and

(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is 
establishing the Work@Health Program, a comprehensive worksite health 
promotion training program, to support employers' efforts to create 
healthy work environments and provide employees with opportunities to 
make healthy lifestyle choices. The Work@Health Program will train and 
support small, mid-size, and large employers with three primary goals: 
(1) Increase understanding of the training needs of employers and the 
best way to deliver skill-based training to them; (2) Increase 
employers' level of knowledge and awareness of worksite health program 
concepts and principles as well as tools and resources to support the 
design, implementation, and evaluation of effective worksite health 
strategies and interventions; and (3) Increase the number of science-
based worksite health programs, policies, and practices in place at 
participating employers' worksites and increase the access and 
opportunities for employees to participate in them.
    CDC is requesting OMB approval to initiate Phase 2 information 
collection. Phase 2 procedures were informed by a needs assessment and 
pilot test that were conducted in fall 2013 (``CDC Work@Health Program: 
Phase 1,'' OMB No. 0920-0989, exp. 9/30/2014). In Phase 2, CDC will 
offer training in four models (formats): (1) A ``Hands-on'' instructor-
led workshop model (T1), (2) a self-paced ``Online'' model (T2), (3) a 
combination or ``Blended'' model (T3), and (4) a ``Train-the-Trainer'' 
model (T4) designed to prepare qualified individuals to train employers 
through the Hands-on, Online, or Blended models.
    To evaluate the training, information will be collected from 
approximately 540 employers and approximately 60 individuals who are 
interested in becoming trained/certified instructors for the 
Work@Health Program. Respondents will include employers/employees, 
trainees who participate in the four training models, and training and 
technical assistance instructors, coaches and subject matter experts.
    CDC will use the information collected to evaluate the 
effectiveness of the Work@Health Program in terms of (1) increasing 
employer's knowledge and awareness of worksite health concepts, 
principles, and resources and (2) increasing the number of science-
based worksite health programs, policies and practices in place at 
participating employers' worksites. The information will also be used 
to identify the best way(s) to deliver skill-based training and 
technical support to employers in the area of worksite health.
    OMB approval is requested for two years. Participation in 
Work@Health is voluntary and there are no costs to participants other 
than their time and cost of travel to the training. The total estimated 
annualized burden hours are 1,601.
