- Abstract
The article discusses research being done on the design characteristics of worksite environmental interventions for the prevention of obesity. It references a study by Charlotte A. Pratt et al published in the 2007 issue of "Obesity." The design characteristics of worksites for U.S. National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI)-funded studies on obesity prevention offer space for target employees and encourage employee participation. Changes in dietary and physical activity behaviors are ways to prevent the obesity epidemic.
