Description
|
Developed by CIIP (Italian inter-association consultation for prevention), the Work Ability Index (WAI) Questionnaire includes a very detailed list of questions aimed at investigating among employees not only the general level of satisfaction with the work but also, and most importantly, if the tasks carried out on a daily basis in their workplace are affecting (or acted already) their well-being, physical and/or mental health. |
Benefits of the tool
|
The overall layout is very clear and easy to understand. As already mentioned, the tool can potentially find many different applications in various ecosystems since it is not tailored on any specific industry/target group. Health and well-being are universal concerns, as such, questions are designed to be as inclusive as possible. Finally, the tool is also particularly beneficial because it takes into consideration both dimensions of well-being in work places: physical and mental. |
How to use the tool
|
The tool is very self-explanatory and user-friendly. But the actual use of results can really depend on the final recipient. The tone of responses might diverge quite significantly if the targets is represented by workers (i.e., ‘blue collars’) rather than clerks. But this represents also the most interesting scenario. |
Target
|
Management as well as employees (workers, clerks, etc.) |
