The CPH-NEW Healthy Workplace Participatory Program (HWPP) is designed specifically to help employer organizations adopt and implement programs with a Total Worker Health® approach. The HWPP Toolkit was developed to engage employees in designing integrated solutions that address a wide range of work environment, work organization, safety, and employee health issues.

Guides to Implementing the HWPP

Guides to implementing the HWPP are organized in a stepwise manner below to help you initiate, implement, and evaluate your program. The materials are appropriate whether you are starting a new program or enhancing an existing one. Review the Toolkit at a Glance to see the core program materials.

What's New?

HWPP Tools for Lean

The HWPP Tools for Lean webpage shows how to use specific HWPP tools and procedures to enhance the Lean process by involving front-line workers and developing Total Worker Health (TWH) interventions. CPH-NEW has developed descriptions for each of the HWPP Tools adapted for Lean initiatives, which are all available to download.

If you are interested in learning how the HWPP can support employee health and safety during the Lean process, we encourage you to view the HWPP Tools for Lean Case Study.
