Methodology

PROCEDE / PRECEDE Framework

◦ This model provides a template for the process of conceiving, planning,

implementing, and evaluating the intervention

◦ It is structured as a participatory model to incorporate ideas that will maximally

help achieve the program targets.

◦ This framework enables the program executers to collect more accurate

information.

◦ It helps building ownership of the intervention, leading to more organizational

support and a greater chance of success.

◦ It incorporates evaluation of the process, the intervention itself, and the final

outcome that allows momentum monitoring and response to gaps.

Planning FrameWork

Transtheoretical Model (TTM)

◦ This model would cover people at different stages that have different information

needs. It will allow putting the target population in the appropriate stage and

provide information, so that anticipated benefits from the intervention can be

achieved.

Community Model (CM)

◦ This model addresses individuals, group, and organizational issues. It will enable

the implementation team to target different points on the organizational levels,

learn about their unique characteristics and develop interventions applicable to

that group.

Applied Theories

Social Cognitive Model (SCT)

◦ SCT theory explain that people learn others behaviors; therefore, participants will

have a role model who shares the same characteristics as the target population. A

selected Role Model is to be selected; i.e., the company CEO to launch the

program. The role model to be chosen will be based on popularity, power, trust

and preference

Cont: Applied Theories

Upon successful implementation of the program and objectives achievement, the

program is proposed to be cascaded to Das Island, Rigs, Mussafah Base and the

headquarter. The program is developed in such a way that makes it transferable and

adoptable by any organization therefore can easily be transferred to other sister

companies that share similar characteristics. by that we can achieve standardization

in health and safety level across the ADNOC group and companies

Our goal is: Sustainable Health via “Workplaces Wellness”
