title: Process evaluation of a workplace health promotion intervention aimed at improving work engagement and energy balance.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the process of the implementation of an intervention aimed at improving work engagement and energy balance, and to explore associations between process measures and compliance.
  
  
  METHODS
  Process measures were assessed using a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The mindfulness training was attended at least once by 81.3% of subjects, and 54.5% were highly compliant. With regard to e-coaching and homework exercises, 6.3% and 8.0%, respectively, were highly compliant. The training was appreciated with a 7.5 score and e-coaching with a 6.8 score. Appreciation of training and e-coaching, satisfaction with trainer and coach, and practical facilitation were significantly associated with compliance.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The intervention was implemented well on the level of the mindfulness training, but poorly on the level of e-coaching and homework time investment. To increase compliance, attention should be paid to satisfaction and trainer-participant relationship.
