Abstract

This dataset is from an online randomised controlled trial of an online health check that delivers personalised feedback on alcohol, smoking, fruit and vegetable consumption and levels of physical activity, funded by the NIHR School for Primary Care Research, led by University College London. Background Alcohol misuse in England costs around £7.3 billion (US$12.2 billion) annually from lost productivity and absenteeism. Delivering brief alcohol interventions to employees as part of a health check may be acceptable, particularly with online delivery which can provide privacy for this stigmatised behaviour. Research to support this approach is limited and methodologically weak. The aim was to determine the effectiveness of online screening and personalised feedback on alcohol consumption, delivered in a workplace as part of a health check.
