2. Outline
• State of knowledge (evidence base)
– Sedentary behaviour (too much sitting) as a unique public
health problem – paradigm shift
– Evidence linking sedentary behaviour with mortality, even in
people who are physically active
• Current & future research directions towards
building the evidence-base in relation to sitting
– Controlled laboratory studies
– Settings-based interventions

7. Sedentary Behaviours
• Sedere – “to sit”
• Different activities that
involve sitting and low
levels of energy
expenditure
• Includes sitting during
commuting, in the
workplace, the domestic
environment and during
leisure time
“Sitting time” = what these sedentary behaviours primarily involve

that population life

would be 2.00 years

their sitting time to < 3
hours per day and 1.38

24. The ‘Breaks In Sedentary Time’ Hypothesis
• ‘Breaking-up’ sedentary time (frequent transitions from sitting to
standing) has beneficial associations with health outcomes
(independent of sedentary time)
“Prolonger” “Breaker”

CPM < 100
Not sedentary

34. “The workplace provides an ideal opportunity to engage
individuals in taking more control of their own health”.
“The results suggest that simple interventions that can be
implemented in the workplace and domestically to decrease
passive sitting time and increase the number of breaks can also
lead to substantial health improvements.”

43. Comcare Unit Representatives’ Input
– “Laps” around office - defined circuit
– Introduction of more standing into meetings (initiated by
Chairperson from the outset)
– Use printers further away
– Ergonomically sound exercises at scheduled times
– Wireless headsets for conference calls (to enable standing)
– Breaks compliance software
– Use the stairs (reduced access during intervention period)
– “No bins” policy – no personal bins
– Timed walking routes in vicinity of building

We recommend that you...
Stand Up Sit Less Move More
At least every 30 Use your Throughout the
min! workstation! day!
49. Favorite Behaviour Change
Strategies
Stand Up
Set a timer (online, through outlook, etc)
Stand up when the phone rings or when someone enters the office
Stand up when someone else does
Sit Less
Determine certain ‘standing times’, i.e. every morning and after lunch
Stand up when someone else does
Stand during meetings
Move More
Use the stairs instead of the lift
Walking laps
More active lunch breaks (e.g. walking around the block)
Fill water bottle more often
Pick up printing more often

52. Comments on Workstations
Positive
enjoying being able to work while standing
being less stiff
significant reductions in back/ neck/ shoulder discomfort
feeling less tired and lethargic
feeling better/ more energetic
improved concentration
Negative
no flexibility to move WS back and forth on desk
no flexibility to move keyboard back and forth relative to monitor
sore feet/legs in beginning
keyboard/mouse shelf too small
workstation shelf too small
takes up too much room on desk
15/18 wanted to keep their workstations!

• 3-year cluster-randomised controlled trial
– 320 participants (160 per group)
– 15+ worksites from one organisation
• 3 months of intervention, 9 months of follow-up
• Organisational, individual, environmental
elements
• Cost-effectiveness analysis
60. Aims WorkFit-S
Stand Up Sit Less Move More
Kindly donated
by Ergotron
1) To evaluate the effectiveness of height-adjustable workstations
in the workplace to reduce sitting time.
2) To evaluate whether the addition of an individual and
organisational support component leads to greater
reductions in sitting time than the workstations alone.

Group 1: Workstations (n=14)
Group 2: Workstations + Individual Support + Organisational Support (n=14)

62. Take Home Messages
• Create opportunities within your waking hours to
limit sitting time
• Avoid prolonged sitting periods - break up sitting
time on a regular basis (“Stand Up, Sit Less,
Move More, More Often”)
• Remember:

• “I feel much more alert, especially after the lunch
break.”
• “We love it – do you mind if we post a photo of us
standing at our workstations on yammer?
• “My lower back pain is getting much better!”
• “I feel more energetic!”
• “I feel so much healthier, which
means that I can eat more
chocolate, right?”
