SWiNG

Health Promotion Switzerland and the Swiss Insurance Association (SVV) have launched their SWiNG project to provide companies with specific interventions to identify and remedy causes of workplace stress. Companies shall also realise that workplace health promotion is really beneficial – both to the company and to its staff. The highly relevant project systematically evaluates measures at the individual and structural levels. Moreover, it points out clearly what is effective. It is based on European quality criteria and examines the economic benefits of implemented interventions.

Pilot companies joined up early in 2008. Interventions will be implemented in two surges in spring 2008 and 2010. The project initiators will fund in-company analyses and evaluation costs of participating companies, who pay for their own immediate costs of interventions to promote workplace health.
