A regional health authority wishes to use a behavioural nudge to encourage hospital staff to choose healthier dietary options in the staff canteen. Which one of the following policies represents a nudge?
Re-arranging the canteen layout so that fresh fruit and low-calorie snacks are displayed at eye-level near the checkout, while high-calorie desserts are moved to a less accessible, lower shelf.
Charging a 0.500.500.50 surcharge on all desserts that exceed a specific calorie threshold, with the revenue used to subsidise fruit.
Banning the sale of deep-fried foods and sugar-sweetened beverages in all public sector canteens.
Providing a monthly 151515 wellness bonus directly into the pay slips of employees who log a healthy body mass index.
