Brief Summary:
The study was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a multidimensional worksite intervention program to reduce the severity of metabolic disorders in older workers in Taiwan.
Detailed Description:
The investigators conducted a quasi-experiment in older workers from three worksites in southern Taiwan.
* Qualified subjects were assigned to the intervention or the reference group according to their availability to take part in study activities.
* A researcher reviewed the health record and discussed with the subject about his/her health status.
* Subjects in the intervention group received lifestyle interventions. The activities included motivational presentations to increase awareness of own health problems and the role of lifestyle in the etiology of non-communicable chronic diseases.
* Subjects were organized into small groups to have biweekly meetings to share experiences, stimulate mutual encouragement and to overcome obstacles.
* Anthropometric and biochemical indicators were measured at baseline and endpoint (week 24).
