Formula Used
Employee Wellness Index = Σ (Normalized Factor Score × Weight) ÷ 100
Each factor is converted to a 0-100 score first. Positive factors use direct scaling. Negative factors like stress, burnout, and absenteeism use inverse scaling.

|---|---|---|---|
| Stress Level | 1-10 | Inverse | 15% |
| Sleep Quality | 1-10 | Direct | 12% |
| Work-Life Balance | 1-10 | Direct | 14% |

FAQs
1. What does the employee wellness index measure?
It combines stress, sleep, balance, engagement, support, activity, burnout, absenteeism, and job control into one weighted 0-100 workplace wellbeing score.
2. Is this score a medical or psychological diagnosis?
No. It is a management and planning indicator. It helps identify patterns and support needs, but it does not replace professional mental health evaluation.
3. Why are stress and burnout treated differently?
They are inverse factors. Higher values lower the final index because rising stress and burnout usually indicate weaker recovery, resilience, and overall wellness.
4. Can I use this for a team instead of one employee?
Yes. Enter team-average survey ratings and period averages for activity and absenteeism. The score then reflects group wellness rather than an individual profile.
5. How often should the index be reviewed?
Monthly or quarterly reviews work well for most organizations. Frequent reviews make trend tracking easier and help assess whether support actions are improving wellbeing.
6. What is considered a strong score?
Scores above 70 usually reflect stable or flourishing conditions. Scores below 55 suggest growing strain and should trigger closer review and targeted action.
7. Should I change the weights for my organization?
You can, especially if your surveys or policies emphasize different drivers. Keep total weights at 100 so the final score remains comparable and understandable.
8. What should I do when the score is low?
Review the weakest factors first, then adjust workload, communication, flexibility, support access, and manager check-ins. Reassess later to confirm improvement.
