“…Scientific reviews have shown that the design of successful WHPPs is a complex process and programs are most effective when they are: (1) based on scientifically valid constructs [ 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ]; (2) tailored to the meet the needs of individuals [ 6 , 10 , 21 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ]; and (3) perceived as both useful and enjoyable by participants [ 7 , 9 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 ]. Despite an abundance of practitioner research focused on validation of scientific constructs (e.g., the application of social cognitive theory [ 17 , 31 ] or behavioral strategies [ 21 , 32 ]), and objective outcomes of WHPP participation (e.g., changes in Body Mass Index (BMI) and nutritional consumption [ 8 , 10 , 11 , 33 ]); few studies have focused on employee perceptions of WHPPs associated with participation and engagement.…”
