Worksite wellness program to stand and move more
This study tests a workplace program designed to help employees sit less and move more by using stand-and-move practices at work. It may help reduce long periods of sitting, and it also studies how to set the program up successfully at worksites.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Most of your workplace staff work full-time (30+ hours per week).
