| Scale | Public-health intervention |
|---|---|
| Local | A community service supports adults who regularly drink large amounts of alcohol to reduce their alcohol intake. |
| National | Employers throughout one country provide workers with time and facilities for regular exercise. |
| Global | An international workplace agreement reduces workers' exposure to tobacco smoke, air pollution and occupational dust in participating countries. |
