How are the survey questions chosen?
The questions, scoring, reporting and awards are chosen by an independent board. It's made up of experts and academics across a range of fields. This includes public health, behavioural psychology, mental health and workplace wellbeing. And it's chaired by expert medical practitioner, Professor Dame Carol Black. See the full list of board members
Once we have our survey results, is there a way to track progress?
Based on survey answers from your employees, we'll give your organisation an accreditation status. This will be Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum. We'll also give you a benchmark against similar employers in the same industry.
Your status is a simple way to understand your employee's health and wellbeing and is a good tool for tracking progress. You can get an updated status every year.
