Accreditation scheme promotes workplace health to prevent cardiovascular disease

This programme promotes workplace health to prevent cardiovascular disease and chronic illness. Through an accreditation scheme, it offers certification to incentivise companies. The scheme also provides a manual of good practices on nutrition, physical activity, smoking, well-being and work-life balance. It features a strong public authority role, company ownership and structured implementation tools. The programme is still active in Lombardy (Italy) and has been transferred successfully to Andalusia (Spain), with adaptations for small and medium-sized enterprises.
