About

With funding from the Alberta Ministry of Labour (Grant #095244772), a program called POWERPLAY (www.powerplayatwork.com), designed to promote men's health at work, will be evaluated in workplaces in Alberta.

Full description

In year 1, this project includes two main research components: 1. A pragmatic (real world) study will be conducted employing a quasi-experimental (not a randomized controlled trial), before and after design to evaluate the effectiveness of the POWERPLAY program. 2. An integrated set of research activities (systematic review, sleep behaviors and consultation groups) will be used to provide the basis for developing recommendations for promoting sleep health in male-dominated workplaces, and inform the development and testing of a POWERPLAY sleep health module (REST-UP) in Year 2.
