Map of Stand Up, Sit Less, and Move More intervention strategies across intervention target levels

	Stand Up	Sit Less	Move More
Principle	Breaking up prolonged periods of sitting	Reducing overall sitting time	Increasing energy expenditure
Key message	Stand up at least every 30 minutes	Reduce daily sitting time	Take every opportunity to be more active
Organization	Focus:
	- Changing social norms (reinforcement & role modeling)
	Strategies:
	- Gain organisational/upper management support through consultation
	- Identify site representatives as role models and spokespersons for employees
	- Representatives to reinforce Ix messages (e.g. emails sent from them not research staff, articles in site newsletters)
	- Establish new workplace policies & practices (e.g. standing meetings, no emails within organisational units- face visits instead, move waste bins, printers, supplies; tailored to each site)
Environment	Focus:
	- Prompts/Behavioral cues	- Use of height-adjustable workstations	- Increasing awareness
	Strategies:
	- Prompts at desk (e.g. postcards, stickers)	- Installation of height-adjustable workstations	- Environmental changes to encourage movement (e.g. signs at lifts prompting use of stairs, centrally located printers & bins; tailored to each site)
	- Timer as visual cue to stand
Individual	Focus:
	- Prompts/Behavioral cues	- Goal setting for use of workstations	- Increasing awareness
	Strategies:
	- Education on breaks in sitting & health	- Education on prolonged sitting & health	- Education on incidental activity & health
	- Encourage use of prompts (e.g. stand when telephone rings, when someone enters the office)	- SMART goal setting for use of workstations	- Encourage use of strategies (e.g. “imails” instead of emails (walk to colleague); walk to bathroom that is farthest away; use stairs instead of lift)
		- Self-monitoring using timer and chart
