What is the focus of workplace health promotion programs typically?

  1. Preventing occupational diseases

  2. Encouraging employees to commute

  3. Promoting healthy lifestyles

  4. Increasing workplace productivity

The correct answer is: Promoting healthy lifestyles

Workplace health promotion programs are usually designed to promote healthy lifestyles among employees. This can include initiatives such as health education, wellness activities, and resources to support employees in making healthy choices. Option A, preventing occupational diseases, may be a part of certain health promotion programs, but it is not their main focus. Encouraging employees to commute (option B) may also be a component of a health program, but it is not typically the main focus. Lastly, while increasing workplace productivity (option D) may be a benefit of a health program, it is not its primary focus; rather, productivity may be seen as a positive side effect of promoting healthy lifestyles among employees.
