Background: The lifestyles have great influence on the occupational health of workers. The objective of this research is the Spanish adaptation of HPLP-II Scale Walker and Hill-Polerecky in working population. Factors that measures the original scale are 6 and correspond to physical activity, Spiritual Growth, Stress Management, Nutrition, Interpersonal Relations and Responsibility to health. Method: Participants were 513 workers (48.1% male, 51.9% female), obtained by a non-probability sampling. We used the FACTOR programs (version 7.2) and SPSS 20.0. Results: In the HPLP-II scale, the results support a four-factor solution reducing the number of items 52-48, presenting adequate reliability (Responsibility towards health = 0.81, = 0.86 Physical Activity, Nutrition = 0.7 and spiritual growth and interpersonal relations = 0.88) and evidence of validity: MBI-GS, Self-Efficacy, Life Satisfaction and Engagement. Conclusions: HPLP-II Scale is a reliable and valid, suitable for use in Spanish instrument.
