Wellbeing audit: The complete health check for your organization

Written by Move to Happiness | Mar 4, 2026 2:14:58 PM

Do you know what absenteeism truly costs your organization? And more importantly, do you know which wellbeing initiatives are actually delivering measurable impact?

Perhaps this sounds familiar: you are already investing in employee wellbeing, yet you lack clear data to determine whether those efforts are truly paying off. Or you are just starting your wellbeing journey and unsure where to begin. That is exactly where our wellbeing audit makes the difference.

What is a wellbeing audit?

A wellbeing audit goes far beyond a superficial review. It is a thorough analysis of your organization’s current wellbeing landscape. We look beneath the surface to identify the real opportunities and challenges that shape your teams’ energy and performance.

Think of it as a comprehensive health check for your company, focused specifically on the mental, physical and emotional wellbeing of your people.

Why is a wellbeing audit essential?

The numbers speak for themselves: for an organization with 250 employees and an absenteeism rate of 8.65%, the annual cost can reach €2.38 million. Our experience shows that targeted wellbeing interventions can reduce this by 10–20%, translating into potential annual savings of €238,000 to €468,000.

But it goes beyond cost reduction alone:

  • 💡 Increased productivity through better focus and energy
  • 🎯 Higher employee satisfaction and better retention
  • 📈 Improved company culture and team cohesion
  • 🛡️ Prevention of burnout and mental health issues

Our 4-step approach

Step 1: Desk research - Laying the foundation

We begin with a thorough analysis of your organization from multiple perspectives:

🔍Organization Profile & Absenteeism Calculation
In a workshop with your HR director, we calculate the exact cost of absenteeism and build a comprehensive organizational profile. No rough estimates, but concrete data that serves as a clear baseline.

💬Stakeholder Mapping
We engage with all relevant stakeholders, from HR business partners to communications managers and DPOs. Each conversation is translated into actionable insights.

📊Current State Analysis
We assess existing wellbeing initiatives, the tools currently in use and the effectiveness of internal communication around wellbeing.

Step 2: Field research - The human factor

This is where it becomes truly insightful. We step into the organization to understand what is really happening on the ground:

👥 Management Interviews (3-4 interviews)
Structured 30-minute interviews with the CEO, COO and selected team leaders to explore strategic priorities, perceived challenges and leadership perspectives.

🗣️ Employee Interviews (15-20 interviews)
Focused 15-minute conversations across departments and seniority levels. This is where we uncover honest, unfiltered insights into what employees genuinely experience and need.15-minute interviews divided by departments and seniority. This is where we get the unvarnished truth about what employees really need.

Step 3: Analysis - from data to insights

All collected information is translated into clear, actionable insights:

  • 📈 SWOT Analysis - strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and risks
  • 🎯 GAP Analysis - where are the biggest gaps?
  • 🏆 Benchmarking - how are you performing against similar organizations?
  • 💰 ROI Projection - what can you expect from investing in wellness?

Step 4: Report & roadmap - your action plan

The final outcome is a comprehensive strategic report that includes:
