This study examined the relevant costs and consequences that might be included in a comprehensive economic evaluation of an occupational health and safety intervention in the health care sector, from the perspective of various stakeholders such as workers, employers, insurers, and the B.C. Ministry of Health

The researchers examined how these costs and consequences might be measured and integrated in an economic evaluation, given data availability and stakeholder preferences

The framework for economic evaluation developed through the research consists of seven principles of good practice, a monograph describing how to apply those principles, and four electronic templates to assist in preparing economic evaluations of health and safety programs in the health care field in B.C
