“…The results obtained in the Socio-economic assessment of a Physical Activity Programme for the employees of company research (CSD & INSHT, 2013) show a positive return of investment (ROI) of 2.9 € per 1 euro invested, with a decrease in absenteeism, as well as an improvement in productivity [72]. These findings are in line with research by Laroche et al [14], Whitsel et al [15], López-Bueno et al [16], and Van Amelsvoort et al [17]. The job satisfaction and sense of belonging shown in the company also coincide with that indicated by Gómez-Chacón et al [18,19] and Laroche et al [14].…”

“…In the first place, workplace well-being programmes have an impact on economic aspects. Several research works indicate that the practice of physical activity is positively related to an increase in labour productivity [14,15], decreases absenteeism [16,17], increases job satisfaction [18,19], and raises work capacity [20]. Some organisations mandate or strongly incentivise recreation activities (e.g., fitness programmes) for utilitarian ends as an activity aimed at improving employee health and decreasing associated health care costs [21].…”

Employees’ health is being affected not only by the possibility of contracting COVID-19, but by all the negative consequences that this pandemic has brought, such as confinement, social distancing, and self-isolation. In recent decades, more companies have opted for corporate well-being programmes in their workplaces, improving the health and quality of life of their employees. The effects generated by the current COVID-19 pandemic require these programmes to adapt to this new situation. The objective of this case study is to analyse the corporate well-being programme, in times of COVID-19, of Mahou San Miguel, a benchmark company in corporate well-being in Spain. A mixed method approach to data collection was used. The findings show the benefits achieved in its adaptation to this new physical-virtual environment. This paper could help other companies around the world to adapt their corporate well-being programmes to the new reality brought about by COVID-19.

“…Due to the important influence of health attitude on health promotion lifestyle, affection and behavioral intention should be fully considered in the process of health promotion. For example, given the increasing use of social media by Chinese residents [ 74 ], its use may be considered a judicious way to promote health lifestyle or health information [ 75 ], it can improve the accessibility of health information to various population groups—regardless of age, education, income, and locality to health information—compared to traditional communication methods [ 76 – 78 ]. It can also provide valuable social and affective support to users [ 75 , 79 ], it is necessary to design participatory health promotion measures based on social media.…”

Objectives This study aims to explore the status of Shandong Province, China residents’ health promotion lifestyle and its influencing factors, especially to explore how health attitude affects health promotion lifestyle, thus can make targeted recommendations for health promotion in China and similar areas. Methods 1800 adults were selected from urban and rural areas of Shandong Province, China, using multistage stratified, cluster random sampling method. A survey was conducted face-to-face from March to May, 2018, using Health Promotion Lifestyle Profile and Health Attitude Questionnaire. The between-group measured data were compared by One-way ANOVA or t-tests. The correlation between the health attitude and health promotion lifestyle was examined by Pearson correlation. Logistic regression model was used to examine the related factors influencing health promotion lifestyle. Health promotion lifestyle is the dependent variable, and gender, education level, annual family per capita income and health attitude are the independent variables. Results The mean (SD) of HPLP-IICR total score of the participants was 82.12(16.63). 54.50% of the participants had poor or average health promotion lifestyle, while 45.50% had good or excellent health promotion lifestyle. Significant differences existed in health promotion lifestyle among different gender, education level, income level, marital status, and health attitude (Ps < 0.001). Multivariable Logistic regression model found that male (OR = 0.35, 95% CI: 0.12–0.34), high school education level (OR = 0.57, 95% CI:0.17–0.41), junior middle school & below (OR = 0.42; 95% CI:0.12–0.33), annual family per capita income with < 10,000 CNY (OR = 2.53, 95% CI:1.24–2.06; OR = 2.14, 95% CI:1.08–3.12), low health affection (OR = 0.39, 95% CI:2.15–4.22), and low health behavioral intention (OR = 0.21; 95% CI: 2.33–5.29) were statistically significant correlates of average or poor health promotion lifestyle. Conclusions The health lifestyle needs to be further promoted in Shandong Province, China. The government and social sectors are encouraged to make more efforts to improve the accessibility and quality of health services. Meanwhile, individual responsibility cannot be ignored as well. More affective factors and operable measures should be added to enhance health affection and health behavioral intention, so as to enhance health promotion lifestyle.

“…As highlighted, it is possible to work before the pharmaceutical life cycle starts-by increasing the health status/ wellness of humans (working in the downstream of health) and the quality of the environment (here, also combating climate change should be added). The actions preventing the diseases, such as healthy lifestyle and early diagnosis, have measurable benefits for society and lower the cost of healthcare (Chung et al 2020;de Boer et al 2020;Laroche et al 2020). The cost of actions is hard to determine, as well as the environmental profits, but generally, working in the downstream of the life cycle is connected with higher costs.…”

The global problem of the presence of human and veterinary pharmaceuticals in the environment is under investigation. Despite the increase in the knowledge of its sources, fates and impacts, the assessment of risks and the derived prevention actions are limited to single cases. The predicted increasing trend in the usage of pharmaceuticals forces the various parties involved to think about comprehensive mitigation actions. There are many areas of daily human life and industrial operations where such actions should take place. Thereby, in the presented review, such actions were summarized and divided into the following groups: A. design, synthesis and production of pharmaceuticals, B. prescription, sales and waste handling, C. control of the sources with advanced technologies. As the total amount of proposed actions was found to be quite high, a ranking according to the term of effects was proposed using the pyramid of needs. The advantages of actions taken in the first steps of the pharmaceutical life cycle (acting on the upstream) over end-of-pipe actions and the application of advanced technologies (the downstream option) were discussed, with reference to expert opinions.
