SSW-T Trial Summary

This trial will compare the cost effectiveness of a sun protection policy and education intervention delivered in person vs. by technology.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for U.S. fire departments and state Departments of Transportation (DOTs) willing to participate, with at least 6 managers and 50 workers completing a pretest. It's also for senior managers responsible for workplace safety/health policy and education who consent to join the study, as well as employees working outdoors during daytime hours.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests two methods of delivering sun protection policies and education: the original in-person 'Sun Safe Workplaces' program versus a new technology-based version. The goal is to compare their effectiveness and cost when scaled up nationally among outdoor workers.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves policy implementation rather than medical interventions, there are no direct side effects like those associated with drugs or medical procedures. However, potential indirect effects could include changes in workplace practices or employee behavior regarding sun exposure.
