Greater Lawndale Healthy Work Certification Program Principles: Process Guide
Abstract
The Greater Lawndale Healthy Work Certification Program Principles Process Guide describes the six-step methodology used to develop the Healthy Work Certification Program Principles, an evidence- and worker-informed framework that establishes values and practices for the Greater Lawndale Healthy Work Business Certification Program. The program aims to shift the local employment landscape toward healthier jobs by increasing adoption of healthy work principles among businesses, strengthening accountability to higher labor standards, and leveraging grassroots worker organizations advocating for good jobs and equitable hiring practices in Chicago. The guide is designed to support replication of this participatory, community-academic approach to developing healthy work interventions in other settings.
