About the Index

Q1. What is unique about the Health and Safety Index?

1. Holistic: Unlike traditional safety culture surveys, the Health and Safety Index covers 4 aspects in approx. 10mins!
These 4 aspects include Health & Wellbeing, Safety Leadership, Safety Engagement and Safety Systems.

2. Employee Engagement: The Health and Safety Index has an integrated set of employee engagement questions. Employee engagement is commonly used as a lead to improve organisational culture, people and performance.

3. Tailored: Our solution allows for business specific demographic data to help identify hotspots and comparisons between cohorts, e.g. positions, locations and business units. This informs strategic choices, a targeted use of resources and a positive Return on Investment (ROI).

4. Reliable: An independent empirical study by a Murdoch University PhD (Org Psych) concluded the reliability of the Health and Safety Index was “Excellent” (r >0.9). This allows organisations to apply the Health and Safety Index and benchmark performance with high levels of confidence.

5. Valid: Our solution has research informed questions and meaningful reports based on statistically reliable “Levers” and “Outcomes”.

6. Insightful: Receiving feedback at scale allows you to hear things, you can’t normally hear. Our impartial and expert interpretation allows you to see things you can’t normally see!


Q2. Does the Health & Safety Index help evaluate safety culture?

A: The Health & Safety Index is an integrated set of climate survey questions adapted from academic research. Although climate surveys are not a direct measure of culture, the analysis of our Health and Safety Index data provide lead indicators to workplace culture. Our survey evaluates four key aspects:

1. Health & Wellbeing

2. Safety Leadership

Once the survey is completed a report is provided outlining areas of focus based on health and safety beliefs, values, behaviours and experience. Understanding these areas of focus, helps organisations build a high-performance culture.
