4 How much does obesity cost employers? Medical, Absenteeism, Presenteeism Expenditures Associated with Overweight and Obesity Overweight BMI Obese BMI Obese BMI Obese BMI 40+ Men Medical $148 $475 $824 $1269 Absenteeism $85 $277 $657 $1026 Presenteeism -$555 $391 $1010 $3792 TOTAL -$322 $1143 $2491 $6087 Women Medical $529 $1274 $2532 $2395 Absenteeism $147 $407 $67 $1262 Presenteeism $121 $843 $1513 $3037 TOTAL $797 $2524 $4112 $6694 Source: Finkelstein EA, Dibonaventura MD, Burgess SM, Hale BC.

5 Occupational Injury Increased levels of: Muscloskeletal injuries Repetitive motion injuries Hand-arm vibration syndrome Carpal tunnel syndrome Motor vehicle crashes Use of PPE

6 Occupational Impact of Obesity The effect of obesity on work limitations has about the same magnitude as 20 years of aging. Obese younger workers (20-39 years) have the same prevalence of injury as normal-weight middle aged workers (40-59 years) Hertz, et al. (2004). Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 46(12),

7 Cost of Injury Related to Overweight/Obesity Injury Cost per 200,000 Man Hours Risk Injuries per year Mean Cost of Employee FELA Personal Injury 2001 Personal Injury Costs per year Injury Rate Per Year for at-risk employees Injuries per Year for 200,000 man hours* Cost per 200,000 man hours* Smoking 667 $72,763 $48,532,921 5% 5 $363,815 Stress 146 $72,763 $10,623,398 6% 6 $436,578 Depression 229 $72,763 $16,662,727 7% 7 $509,341 Physical Inactivity 657 $72,763 $47,805,291 5% 5 $363,815 Overweight 1161 $72,763 $84,477,843 5% 5 $363,815 *200,000 Man Hours: 100 employees, full-time, for 1 year

10 RESEARCH PHASE NCCDPHP Knowledge To Action Framework May 2010 TRANSLATION PHASE INSTITUTIONALIZATION PHASE DISCOVERY STUDIES EFFICACY STUDIES Practice-based Discovery Practice-based Evidence EFFECTIVENESS AND IMPLEMENTATION STUDIES DECISION to TRANSLATE KNOWLEDGE INTO PRODUCTS DISSEMINATION ENGAGEMENT DECISION to ADOPT PRACTICE INSTITUTION- ALIZATION DIFFUSION Research Supporting Structures Translation Supporting Structures Insitutionalization Supporting Structures EVALUATION Wilson K.M., Brady T.J., Lesesne, C. (in press.) An Organizing Framework for Translation in Public Health: CDC s National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion s Knowledge to Action Framework. Preventing Chronic Disease.

11 Translation Three Phases: Disseminate - to public health organizations with the intent to encourage them to adopt the intervention within their organization Implement - throughout the organization with fidelity to the core components with which it was tested to be efficacious or effective (with some adaptation) Institutionalize - the intervention and/or eventually abandon it as newer, effective interventions are introduced

12 Diabetes Prevention Program Initially developed to test the efficacy of using a lifestyle intervention to reduce the risk of developing diabetes through increased physical activity and decreased body weight Proven to be effective for managing weight By decreasing caloric intake and increasing energy expenditure in clinical studies Demonstrates reductions in weight of 4.9% (clinical study) of initial body weight The program has not been adapted to be implemented on a large scale within the work setting

13 DPP Core Components weight loss and physical activity goal-based behavioral intervention lifestyle coach delivery frequent contact individual tailoring of the intervention materials and strategies for an ethnically diverse population network support for the interventionists

16 DPP Translation 1. adaptation of the delivery 2. support in the workplace environment 3. support in the home environment

29 Putting CDSMP to Work: Implementation of the Live Healthy, Work Healthy Program Mark G. Wilson, PI Matt L. Smith, PI David M. DeJoy, Co-PI Robert J. Vandenberg, Co-PI Phaedra S. Corso, Co-PI NIH 1R01HL

30 Lessons Learned in Translating Program to Worksites Adaptation of program a key there is a fine line between translation and adaptation Recruitment and follow up of participants varies significantly taking all participants regardless of need Local capacity to implement change varies complexity of intervention influences implementation Organizational factors greatly influence programmatic implementation and outcomes Lower your expectations for success

31 Final Thought We know how to achieve weight loss. Our challenge is to overcome the challenges surrounding that change.
