What is the Work Wellbeing Questionnaire?

This self-report questionnaire will allow you to rate how your workplace compares to others in terms of it being:

  • satisfying
  • providing managerial support
  • offering a value system
  • intruding into your private life or not

While this questionnaire is confidential and we do not need you to provide any identifying personal details we do first require you to complete six general questions so that we can build up a data base of scores across differing groups.

General questions
How many years and months have you been in your current or most recent job?
