Recently, several high-profile randomized clinical trials conducted with employees at the University of Illinois and BJ’s Wholesale Club have questioned the value of workplace health and well-being programs. This commentary focuses on the latest research published in The Quarterly Journal of Economics by authors Jones, Molitor, and Reif who evaluated the iThrive wellness program. The commentary challenges the study’s main finding that wellness programs (in general) do not work. Several perspectives are explored including whether the evaluated programs are well-designed, sufficiently potent, and appropriate candidates for randomized trials. The article also asks what role employers can or should play in improving the health and well-being of Americans given recent troubling statistics showing a decline in life expectancy and an increase in health risks.

Fatigue and job satisfaction among Flemish employees. An application on the JD-R model Fatigue and job satisfaction among Flemish employees. An application on the JD-R model Using the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model this study analyses differences in fatigue and well-being in a representative sample of Flemish employees (N = 12095). The JD-R model assumes that the prevalence of high job demands is associated with strain related phenomena such as fatigue, whereas the availability of job resources in the workplace enhances employee well-being. Jobs combining high job demands and low resources result in the most problematic levels of fatigue and employee well-being. Our analysis confirms the assumptions of this model. Work overload, emotional and physical demands, work-home interference and job insecurity are positively associated with fatigue and negatively with employee well-being. Job autonomy, quality of the relation with the supervisor and learning opportunities are negatively associated with fatigue and positively with employee well-being. Partial evidence is found for the buffer hypothesis: at high levels of work overload a rise in job autonomy reduces the level of fatigue and increases the level of employee well-being. Also our analysis shows that a combination of low job autonomy and few learning opportunities at workplace level are associated with extremely high levels of fatigue and very low employee well-being.
