The importance of indicators in mental health, well-being and quality of life at work
More and more companies are deploying mental health, well-being and quality of life at work initiatives, but are wondering how to measure and evaluate the impact or return on investment (ROI) of their actions.
Updating or setting up indicators and dashboards will help to do this and to:
- structure the actions
- prioritize relevant indicators
- carry out a good data collection
- mobilize the necessary stakeholders
It is also an opportunity to justify the QWL indicators in line with the company’s strategic objectives and related indicators, whether related to workforce shortage, sustainable development, corporate social responsibility or ESG criteria (environmental, social and governance).
To support its affiliated employers, Global-Watch has developed a toolkit. Many themes are addressed in this toolkit and various structural tools are offered, such as:
- A step-by-step guide
