The HAPPY program

Area of Science:

Occupational health
Addiction research
Behavioral science

Context:

Workplace heavy drinking poses risks for lifestyle-related diseases and alcoholism.
The HAPPY program utilized goal setting (drinking plan) and self-monitoring (drinking diary) interventions.
Participant recruitment included 115 individuals, with follow-ups at 3 months (80 participants) and 1 year (31 participants).

Purpose:

To evaluate the efficacy of a drinking plan and drinking diary within the HAPPY program for heavy drinkers in a workplace setting.
To assess the long-term impact of different drinking plan models (quantity limitation, non-drinking days, low-risk drinking model) on reducing alcohol consumption.
To determine the effectiveness of a 12-week drinking diary intervention in improving long-term drinking habits.

The "limitation of quantity" drinking plan showed effectiveness for low-risk drinking.
The "non-drinking days" model was easily adopted but less effective for low-risk drinking.
The "low-risk drinking model" and the 12-week drinking diary intervention demonstrated long-term improvements in drinking habits.

Impact:

The HAPPY program's drinking plan and diary interventions proved effective in preventing lifestyle-related diseases and alcoholism among heavy drinkers.
The study highlights the long-term benefits of goal setting and self-monitoring for modifying workplace drinking behaviors.
Findings support the integration of structured drinking interventions in occupational health programs to mitigate alcohol-related harm.
