Conduct a Workplace Health Survey

It is important to give employees an opportunity to identify health needs i.e. Healthy lifestyle choices and occupational health and safety. It is also important for employers/employees to look at the organizational culture and how it affects health.


Organizational culture

How could work be better organized to help reduce stress?
What could your workplace do to reduce stress at home or outside of work?
What kinds of things do you think your employer can do to help you improve or maintain your health?

What kinds of things do you think this workplace can do to help employees feel more of a sense of influence over their work and personal health?
What can this workplace do to provide support when needed?

Healthy lifestyle choices
What if anything would you like to do to improve your health?
What if anything is stopping you from making these changes?

Occupational Health and Safety
What health and safety changes could be made to this workplace?
