Abstract
Health behaviours are important determinants of health, yet have received inadequate attention within the organisational behaviour literature. Three empirical studies were conducted to enhance conceptual and empirical understanding of the associations between employee wellbeing and a range of health behaviours. The findings of this research provide a valuable starting point for researchers interested in refining job demands-resources theory to take into account health behaviours, and may inform organisations seeking to enhance work well-being initiatives.
