Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: For the SMEs (or clusters): 1. UK-based company with between 10 and 249 staff 2. Operate independently, i.e. not be managed by a larger parent company or conglomerate. Within the participating SMEs, the study will be implemented at an organisational-level: 1. All employees will be eligible to take part in the study 2. Salaried employees and others that SMEs deem appropriate to involve, e.g. those undertaking apprenticeships, contactors, or volunteers. 3. All participants will be of working age, i.e. 16+ years.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: For the SMEs (or clusters): 1. Any companies that were not solely based in the UK 2. Companies that had nine or fewer employees, or 250 or more employees. 3. Companies that operated and were managed by a larger conglomerate. We acknowledge that while many companies have nine or fewer employees and may also benefit from HWS delivered by LEOs with whom they work, we have not included them due to statistical concerns related to small sample sizes. Companies with 250 or more employees are not classed as an SME in the UK. Companies that operated as a conglomerate were excluded because the large parent company may offer health and wellbeing services to the SMEs that they work with, hence contaminating any effect we might observe from the LEO-delivered intervention. Employees: 1. If they were not currently working with one of the participating sites 2. If they were 15 years of age or younger
