Exploring Public Health Research for Corporate Health Policy: Insights for Business and Society Scholars
指出商业与社会文献中缺乏对健康干预影响的研究,通过分析公共卫生领域的工作场所健康干预,建议管理学者采用其方法设计评估干预措施,以促进企业健康政策研究。
Despite the growing interest in societal impact in the business and society literature, there remains a notable gap in research on the impact of health interventions on physical and mental health and social welfare. To address this gap, we shift the unit of analysis to the intervention, akin to the level of analysis used in health research. Drawing on a curated subset of health interventions in the workplace from the public health literature, we argue that management scholars can adopt the methods used by public health scholars to design and assess health interventions. By tapping into the rich insights gained from these studies, management scholars can propose evidence-based interventions and policies that can enhance health outcomes, improve productivity, and cultivate a healthier workplace atmosphere. Collaborating with public health researchers, business and society scholars can help create a new field of research on corporate health policy.
