The present research aims to examine the link between employees’ participation and perception of workplace health promotion in relation to wellbeing, resilience, performance, and commitment. A total number of 47 employees of an organization in Skåne participated. My hypotheses were not confirmed, as findings revealed most outcomes were not significantly linked to participation or perception, and a multivariate multiple regression did not reveal and predictive validity of the two predictors (perception and participation). The one positive work outcome that was significantly related to both perception and participation was wellbeing, which insinuates that employees that participate more frequently or have a better perception of workplace health promotion, have a better wellbeing. The findings provide information on workplace health promotion and possible work outcomes, but at the same time, they also highlight the need for more research to be able to make stronger conclusions.
