^*The following variables did not meet p < 0.1 retention criteria for inclusion in the regression model: rate of change effects–job category, gender; baseline effects–job category, race: other, age. BMI indicates body mass index; WHtR, waist to height ratio; and MET, Metabolic Equivalent Task.

^†Parameter estimate in a covariate-adjusted hierarchical regression model.

^‡Weight (kg)/height (m)².

^§Waist circumference (cm)/height (cm).

^‖Reference categories: study condition: control; race: Caucasian.
