Limit increases in the number and concentration of alcohol outlets by area or by population through licensing or zoning regulations

Provide basic skills (e.g., reading, math, writing, English language, or soft skills) and industry-specific training with other supports; also called occupationally contextualized basic education programs

Provide occupation-specific training for low-skilled individuals in high-growth industries, with education and supports, usually with stackable credentials and work experience opportunities

Tailor health care to patients’ norms, beliefs, and values, as well as their language and literacy skills

Offer employees control over an aspect of their schedule through arrangements such as flex time, flex hours, compressed work weeks, or self-scheduled shift work

Support a collaborative approach by a multidisciplinary team of professionals working to meet the full range of long-term care (LTC) needs for frail elderly patients living in community settings

Organize workers to bargain collectively for improved wages, benefits, and working conditions
