Limited Competition for Evaluating the Health Benefits of Workplace Policies and Practices - Phase II (U01): -The original RFA for the Work, Family, and Health Network (WFHN) provided funding for six teams of interdisciplinary scholars to develop a conceptual and methodological framework, select measurement tools, and design an intervention to serve as the basis for an evaluation of the health benefits of workplace policies and practices aimed at ameliorating work-family conflict. The purpose of this RFA is to maintain the momentum of discovery and further develop research building upon that planning period. In this second phase, the WFHN will implement the intervention and conduct a longitudinal evaluation of its benefits for the health of workers, workers families, and employers. -This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) will utilize the U01 grant mechanism. -The participating organizations intend to commit approximately $5.8 million in total costs [Direct plus Facilities and Administrative (F and A) costs] each year for five years to fund up to six proposals in response to this RFA. The total amount awarded will depend upon the scientific merit and program relevance of the applications received, and the amount of funds available.
