Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical evaluate the effectiveness of the Ckick2Move Programme, a multicomponent digital-based intervention, to reduce sedentary behaviour among home-office workers, and the impact on employees physcial activity patterns, musculoskeletal risk and work-related outcomes (i.e., absenteeism, presenteeism, occupational fatigue and job satisfaction). The study will take place in four countries along Europe (Spain, Ireland, Netherlands, and Slovenia).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Occupational sitting time

  The activPAL3TM (PAL Technologies Ltd., Glasgow, UK) will be used to measure and quantify the occupational sedentary behaviour patterns of employees. This device is a valid measure to quantify body posture and activity patterns during free-living conditions. Participants will wear the activPAL3TM for 7 days. Additionally, participants will be asked to record their daily wake-up time, bedtime, working hours, and any monitor removal time through a diary log.

  Baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

• Leisure sitting time

  The activPAL3TM (PAL Technologies Ltd., Glasgow, UK) will be used to measure and quantify the leisure sedentary behaviour patterns of employees. This device is a valid measure to quantify body posture and activity patterns during free-living conditions.

  Baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

• Total sitting time

  The activPAL3TM (PAL Technologies Ltd., Glasgow, UK) will be used to measure and quantify the leisure sedentary behaviour patterns of employees. This device is a valid measure to quantify body posture and activity patterns during free-living conditions.

  Baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

Secondary Outcomes (11)

• Occupational physical activity (MVPA, LIPA and stepping)

  Baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

• Leisure-time physical activity (MVPA, LIPA and stepping)

  Baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

• Total physical activity (MVPA, LIPA and stepping)

  Baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

• Occupational standing time

  Baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

• Leisure standing time

  Baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

Other Outcomes (2)

• Process evaluation

  3 months, 6 months and 12 months

• Socio demographic

  Baseline

Study Arms (2)

Experimental group

EXPERIMENTAL

Experimental group will receive the Click2Move intervention for one year, including a wearable (provided by the research group) and mobile phone application downloaded in the participants own mobile phone. Click2Move intervention comprises elements at three levels: environmental (activity tracking and app provision, reminders, cooperative challenges, and social chat), organisational level (organisational support and motivational messages), and at individual level (educational materials, self-monitoring, feedback provision, demonstration videos and a list of strategies).

Behavioral: Click2Move

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

Participants in the control arm will be asked to complete the same study measurements as those in the intervention arms, at the same time points. The control arm participants will not receive any device, nor will they have to download the mobile phone application. After the year of the intervention, they will be able to receive the intervention if they agree.

Interventions

Click2Move BEHAVIORAL

One year multicomponent intervention including a wearable, and a mobile phone application downloaded in the own mobile phone. Participants will have activity tracking and app provision, sedentary reminders, cooperative challenges, organisational support and motivational messages, educational material, self-monitoring, feedback provision, demonstration videos and strategies.
