Summary

Several RCT studies have aimed to reduce either musculoskeletal disorders, sickness presenteeism, sickness absenteeism or a combination of these among females with high physical work demands. These studies have provided evidence that workplace health promotion (WHP) interventions are effective, but long-term effects are still uncertain. These studies either lack to succeed in maintaining intervention effects or lack to document if effects are maintained past a one-year period. FRIDOM (FRamed Intervention to Decrease Occupational Muscle pain) is a WHP program among health care workers. A job group characterized by having high physical work demands, musculoskeletal disorders, high sickness presenteeism - and absenteeism.

FRIDOM aimed to reduce neck and shoulder pain and secondary to reduce sickness presenteeism and sickness absenteeism. An other secondary aim was to decrease lifestyle-diseases such as other musculoskeletal disorders as well as metabolic-, and cardiovascular disorders - and to maintain participation to regular physical exercise training, after a one year intervention period. The entire concept was tailored to a population of female health care workers. This was done through a multi-component intervention including 1) intelligent physical exercise training (IPET), dietary advice and weight loss (DAW) and cognitive behavioural training (CBT).

  • Shoulder Pain

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Multi-component lifestyle intervention

The exact same intervention was given to the three Stepped-wedge groups - but each of the three groups were started up three months apart. The waiting groups served as control groups. Thus, the intervention were for all three groups a multi-component intervention consisting of Intelligent Physical Exercise training (IPET), Dietary Advice and Weight loss (DAW) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
