10,000 Steps Workplaces Evaluation

Abstract

This report details the results of an evaluation of the 10,000 Steps programs and resources within workplaces. It examines the type of workplaces that utilise the program, how it has been used and the usefulness of the 10,000 Steps resources for promoting physical activity in the workplace. A web-based survey was conducted between April 7 and May 20, 2011 to determine the use and usefulness of the 10,000 Steps program and its resources in workplaces. A sample of 1,698 current 10,000 Steps Providers were invited to participate in the web-based survey. In total, 282 Providers responded with a partial or complete survey that was able to be analysed, resulting in a response rate of 16.6%
