In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Inspection visits, Guidance workshops, and 1 other intervention for Occupational Health and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 2,555 participants across 130 sites.
Detailed Summary
This study evaluates the effects of the Labour Inspection Authority's regulatory tools on workplace exposures to prevent employee ill health. Norwegian municipal enterprises with employees in the home care sector have been randomized to three different experimental groups and to one control group. We hypothesize a significant lower level of work environmental exposures and health complaints, after adjusting for pre-intervention measures, in the experimental groups compared to the control group.
