Summary

This project is called Test@Work. In this project the investigators will offer general health checks and tailored health advice to up to 650 employees in the construction industry at sites across the East Midlands. The investigators will assess reach and uptake, and evaluate the views and perceptions of employees, managers and the delivery team. Health checks will include Body Mass Index (BMI; weight/height), waist-to-hip ratio, blood pressure, mental health screen, sexual health consultation and an opt-in rapid screening test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Employees will be provided with a resource pack with information and signposting around physical activity, diabetes risk, diet, and musculoskeletal health. A digital resource providing information and signposting about workplace health screening and HIV testing will be developed and provided to managers at the participating worksites 2 weeks before their health check event.

Employees will be offered an additional text messaging service involving receipt of a series of messages with advice around HIV and testing alongside general health information. Employees will complete post-health check exit questionnaires and an exit interview. Managers will complete a post-event evaluation questionnaire and post-event interview. Mixed-methods evaluation will include assessment of reach, uptake, and intervention implementation processes.
