WORKDAY Study
The WORKDAY project aims to study daily physical activity behavior among hybrid workers. One-week long accelerometer-based physical activity behavior measurements were conducted for 99 hybrid workers to study in more details physical activity and sedentary behaviour during remote vs. office workdays. In addition, the perceptions to sitting reduction when working remotely were addressed by interviews. This study will deepen our understanding on how teleworking has modified daily patterns of physical activity. The results can be implemented to promote physical activity through work.
The study has a positive ethical review statement from the Ethics Committee for Human Sciences, University of Turku, Finland.
WORKDAY Study is funded by The Finnish Work Environment Fund and The Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture.
