Research project Alcohol prevention at the workplace – what can we learn from the good examples?

Alcohol consumption is a leading risk factor for injury, disease and premature death in Europe. Hence, there is increasing interest in effective universal interventions to reduce alcohol consumption and related harm, and the workplace is a favorable arena.

The overall aim of this project is to generate new knowledge about organizational factors that promote successful alcohol preventive work at the workplace. This is done by qualitatively studying organizations with a decrease in number of employees with risky alcohol consumption.
