Abstract
This critical review focuses on the 27 new studies focused on the clinical and cost outcomes research focused on worksites and published between 2008 to 2010. A comprehensive search was conducted using a multi-stage process that included a MEDLINE, ERIC, ADI, EDGAR, CARL, Inform, Lexis-Nexis databases, and direct inquires to worksite researchers and corporate medical directors. Clearly, these new studies indicate further evidence of positive outcomes since, the quantity and quality of such research continues to improve. When corporations, government, and health plans are demanding more evidence based outcomes, this increase in rigorous research.
