Abstract
The following study investigates the implementation of a physical activity program for workers at a nursing home. This program was developed using Hawkins' model for co-creation, with the first two phases already designed prior to this study. The researchers explore how implementing physical activity in the workplace can influence workers’ well-being. The physical activity sessions were conducted three times a week over a four-week period, each lasting 10–15 minutes. Data were collected through observations, questionnaires, and focus group interviews. For data analysis, the researchers applied George Engel’s biopsychosocial model to interpret the workers’ physical, mental, and social well-being. Additionally, Antonovsky's Sense of Coherence framework was used to examine the workers’ sense of manageability, comprehensibility, and meaningfulness in relation to workplace physical activity. The study found that acceptance of the training was high when the exercises were physically manageable. Moreover, workers found the program meaningful when social elements were emphasized and group participation was encouraged. The most notable finding was that 77% of the workers wished to continue the initiative after the prototype testing phase was completed
