Maintenance
A key aspect influencing the maintenance of implementing the SUH intervention is having an appropriate budget, primarily for physical equipment. Several centres reported having budget approval, based on the creation of a business case around improvement in productivity (call time) and sickness absence as a result of programme feedback. This has, or will, lead to purchase of equipment such as wireless headsets, desk bikes, desk raisers and smaller items such as small weight sets and yoga mats. However, it was noted that purchasing of equipment in some centres had been put on hold due to COVID-19.The centres appreciated that the programme was adapted for the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown. Staff and managers expressed that they would like to continue and focus on SUH after the pandemic. Managers acknowledged that creating change was a slow process, and expected the programme to grow slowly, with benefits accruing in the long run. Some practices (huddles, walking) and initiatives (wireless headsets) have already been set up and will continue. The programme has created an awareness of sedentary behaviour and sparked numerous ideas among staff for working on site as well as at home.
