Stress: measuring the psychosocial side of health
Burnout is what leaders see. Most work-related strain stays invisible until it isn't. Our Work Experience questionnaire measures it with 50 scored questions across six areas of work.
Six areas of work
Each area captures a different driver of workplace wellbeing — from job demands to recovery to engagement.
- •Work demands
- •Work resources & autonomy
- •Social safety
- •Engagement & meaning
- •Recovery & work-home interface
- •Recognition & reward
The physiological side of stress
The questionnaire captures how work feels. A connected wearable shows whether the body is actually recovering from it — measured every night, not recalled afterwards.
- •Heart-rate variability — falling values point to sustained strain
- •Resting heart rate — a rising baseline often precedes burnout complaints
- •Sleep quality and duration — the first thing chronic stress erodes
- •Readiness trend — a steady decline over weeks is an early warning
- •A mismatch between questionnaire answers and wearable data is itself a signal
Aggregated, not individual
Employers only ever see anonymised, aggregated results with a minimum group size. Individuals see their own.
Why this matters alongside biomarkers
Psychosocial stress shapes the same biological systems we measure with biomarkers — cardiovascular, metabolic and inflammatory. Combining the three pillars is how we explain the whole picture.
Educational content only. Individual Work Experience results are private to the employee; employer dashboards are aggregated with privacy thresholds.
