Research paper thumbnail of No evidence for an effect of working from home on neck pain and neck disability among Swiss office workers: Short-term impact of COVID-19

Methods Participants from two Swiss organisations, aged 18–65 years and working from home during the lockdown (n = 69) were included. Baseline data collected in January 2020 before the lockdown (office work) were compared with follow-up data in April 2020 during lockdown (working from home). The primary outcome of NP was assessed with a measure of intensity and disability. Secondary outcomes were quality of workstation ergonomics, number of work breaks, and time spent working at the computer. Two linear mixed effects models were fitted to the data to estimate the change in NP. Results No clinically relevant change in the average NP intensity and neck disability was found between measurement time points. Each working hour at the computer increased NP intensity by 0.36 points (95% CI: 0.09 to 0.62) indicating strong evidence. No such eff...

Wie sich diese Entscheidungen gestalten, insbesondere dann, wenn eine Auswahl zwischen verschiedenen Alternativen getroffen werden muss, war Ausgangspunkt dieses Forschungsprojekts. Um uns den Auswahllogiken aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven zu nähern, wurden drei Untersuchungsgegenstände ausgewählt und tiefergehend analysiert: Die Auswahl von Familienmitgliedern in (Unternehmer-)Familien, die Auswahl von Innovationspartner*innen, insbesondere in Open Innovation Projekten und die Auswahl von externen Top-Management-Team-Mitgliedern. Unsere Analyse zeigt, dass es Auswahlprozesse auch innerhalb der (Unternehmer-)Familie gibt. Jedoch sind diese nur ein Mittel zum Zweck der Strategiebildung und -umsetzung. Wir können drei unterschiedliche Strategien definieren: Die Familienstrategie, die Unternehmerfamilienstrategie und die Familiness-Strategie. Dabei beinhaltet di...

Research paper thumbnail of On-site multi-component intervention to improve productivity and reduce the economic and personal burden of neck pain in Swiss office-workers (NEXpro): protocol for a cluster-randomized controlled trial

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a multi-component intervention combining workstation ergonomics, health promotion information group workshops, neck exercises, and an app to enhance intervention adherence to assess possible reductions in the economic and individual burden of prevalent and incident neck pain and headache in office workers. Methods/design This study is a stepped wedge cluster-randomized controlled trial. Eligible participants will be any office-worker aged 18–65 years from two Swiss organisations in the Cantons of Zurich and Aargau, working more than 25 h a week in predominantly sedentary office work and without serious health conditions of the neck. One hundred twenty voluntary participants will be assigned to 15 clusters which, at randomly selected time steps, switch from the control to the intervention group. The intervention will last 12 ...
