| dc.description | The Healthy Workplace Framework is an important component of the Government-led
Healthy Ireland agenda, which “aims to create an Irish society where everyone can enjoy
physical and mental health and wellbeing to their full potential, and where wellbeing is
valued and supported at every level of society”.
Workplaces directly influence the physical, mental, economic and social wellbeing of
workers and in turn, the health of their families, communities and society. With more than
two million people employed in Ireland the workplace offers an ideal setting and
infrastructure to support the promotion of health to a large audience. A Healthy Workplace
Framework across both public and private sectors aims to encourage and support the
development of health and wellbeing programmes in all places of employment. This
research paper is an input into the Framework.
This report was prepared for the Health & Wellbeing Programme in the Department of
Health in order to answer the question: what public policy mechanisms (e.g. taxation, grant
assistance) are described in the literature as ways to incentivise employers to promote
healthy workplaces and workplace health programmes? | en |
