CW1: Essay Question – Designing a Wellbeing Intervention
Essay question:
“Critically present and discuss the design of an intervention to tackle a key well-being issue within the workplace.” Identify and evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed intervention; how does it work and who is responsible for their implementation.
1. What is this intervention about? What does it include? Will the wellbeing intervention focus on prevention or on treatment? For example, you may elaborate on stress prevention initiatives, or on interventions aiming to manage and reduce stress.
2. What would the outcome of the intervention be? Would the intervention effectively contribute to behavioural change? Would we expect, for example, individuals who are exposed to the intervention to acquire skills which will help them cope with stress? Or could the intervention contribute to organizational change, impacting for example on how work is arranged?
