Summary

Currently there are very few studies that integrate classical interventions (screening clinics) and online tools in order to obtain sustainable lifestyle changes in workers efficiently.

In addition, 53% of the sampled population were overweight. In this context, the current project aims to motivate aims to motivate and follow individuals towards a healthier lifestyle. To do so, the Activate Your Health will be implemented and tested using various options (limited to more complete) in several companies.
