Summary

Comprehensive approaches that combine sun protection policy and education for outdoor workers can reduce their risk for skin cancer by reducing their exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation on the job. To effectively disseminate the investigators' evidence-based sun protection policy and education intervention, Sun Safe Workplaces, a balance of effectiveness and cost of scale-up methods is required. The investigators propose to translate the intervention using a technology-based delivery method and compare the cost effectiveness of the original intervention and the intervention delivered by technology in a study that models national distribution strategies to public safety and public works sectors.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Sun Safe Workplaces - Technology

After randomization, program staff will contact managers at the recruited employer and schedule the initial web-enabled visit in the first 6 months. Follow-up meetings will be scheduled as needed to discuss policy adoption, and managers will schedule employee education using the SSW-T online training. Staff will follow-up with managers through Month 34 (Wave 1) or Month 46 (Wave 2). Electronic materials will be published on KB's state-of-the-art web server for employers to access and use.

BEHAVIORAL

Sun Safe Workplaces -In Person

After randomization, program staff will contact managers the recruited employer and schedule the initial in-person visit in the first 6 months. Follow-up meetings will be scheduled as needed to discuss policy adoption; managers will schedule employee education with SSW-IP project staff. Printed materials will be sent to SSW-IP employers 3 times during the intervention. Staff will follow-up with managers through Month 34 (Wave 1) or Month 46 (Wave 2).
