Brief Summary: This small randomized controlled trial will evaluate a workplace-based depression intervention that is tailored to the specific social and behavioral needs of low-wage hospital service workers. The intervention involves assessment of depression-related work impairment, work-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, work coaching, social needs screening and referral, and text message support for mood and physical activity.
Detailed Description: Depression and physical inactivity are leading contributors to cardiometabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Low-wage workers, who comprise one third of all workers in the U.S. and are essential to many industries, are more likely to be physically inactive and to have cardiometabolic conditions and depression, yet the participants are half as likely as higher wage workers to utilize preventive care. Targeted workplace initiatives have been successful in improving employee health, but low-wage workers are difficult to engage, in part due to a high burden of social disadvantage (e.g., food and housing insecurity, time and financial constraints). There are few, if any, workplace interventions for depression that specifically target low-wage workers and the participants unique social risk factors. This study was designed using a planned adaptation approach that involved low-wage workers in the design of the intervention to increase engagement and feasibility. The study will test an evidence-based 8-session telephone-delivered depression intervention for working adults, Be Well at Work, and critical adaptations for low-wage workers: assessment and referrals for social determinants of health (e.g., food and housing insecurity, financial stress), physical activity promotion, and personalized text message behavioral support. The adapted intervention, Be Well at Work-PLUS, will be evaluated through a pilot randomized controlled trial comparing Be Well at Work-PLUS to a waitlist condition. The primary objectives are to assess acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary clinical outcomes. The primary preliminary clinical outcome is depression symptom severity, and secondary outcomes are physical activity, sleep quality, blood pressure, and BMI).
