Summary

Norway and other Western industrialized countries are facing major challenges in terms of preventable health problems, high work absence, largescale demographic changes and rising social inequalities in health. This project addresses the need for effective means to meet these important challenges. The project will scientifically evaluate The 5 Ways to Wellbeing course (5Ways), a novel measure aiming to promote wellbeing and integration, health and work adherence. Subjective wellbeing is systematically and prospectively related to important individual and societal outcomes, including social connectedness and integration, innovation, productivity, work performance, healthy behaviours, health and longevity. Promotion of wellbeing may therefore contribute to address the urgent societal ailments of today. Intervention effects and cost effectiveness of the 5Ways will be examined in-depth in four real-life settings, using quantitative methods. Specifically, we will investigate course impact wellbeing, health and work adherence among users of The Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration (NAV) and clients in Healthy Life Centres. If effective, the course may be implemented nationwide and contribute to increase wellbeing and work participation. Findings from the study may thus contribute to enable municipalities and workplaces to make better priorities for promoting work presence, reducing suffering and improving mastery and quality of life among their inhabitants.
