Note: Of the 5350 randomly chosen employees, 1638 (25.8%) were unable to be reached for registration surveys within the allotted time, 1196 (22.4%) refused and 288 (5.4%) were ineligible due to age, pregnancy, language, no longer at company, employment status, and health reasons. Of the 2216 who completed registration, 247 (11.2%) were unable to be reached for baseline surveys within the allotted time, 251 (11.3%) refused and 28 (1.3%) were ineligible due to language, no longer at company, or employment status. After subtracting those who were ineligible, 30.3% of the randomly selected sample completed all baseline measures. We reached our goal of an average of 70 employees per site.
