5-Score Assessment
Workforce Recovery Intelligence™ Scores
Each score illuminates a dimension of workforce recovery — showing exactly where the organization is burning value through inadequate recovery.
Moderate PTO utilization. Most employees take time off, but unused PTO remains high.
Monitor and improve. Targeted interventions will yield positive returns.
Inadequate recovery. Disconnect from work is insufficient. Weekend recovery is incomplete.
Proactive intervention within 60 days. The cost of inaction is material and growing.
High burnout exposure. Multiple departments showing burnout signals. Absenteeism and turnover rising.
Proactive intervention within 60 days. The cost of inaction is material and growing.
Fragile. The organization is running on workforce goodwill. A shock will break it.
Proactive intervention within 60 days. The cost of inaction is material and growing.
Adequate capacity. Most roles have coverage. Recovery is possible but imperfect.
Monitor and improve. Targeted interventions will yield positive returns.

Wellness Diagnostics
8 Wellness Measurements
Each measurement benchmarked against Healthcare industry standards. The gaps reveal where recovery investment yields the highest return.
PTO Usage
lowPTO utilization rate: 42% of available PTO is actually taken. Industry benchmark: 48%. 68% of employees have unused PTO.
Vacation Utilization
lowAverage vacation days taken: 7 of 15 offered. Benchmark: 8 days. Missing vacations = missing deep recovery.
Sick Time Trends
lowSick days per employee: 8/year. Stress-related absence rate: 8%. Elevated sick time signals inadequate recovery.
Overtime
lowAverage overtime: 9 hrs/week. 48% of employees work overtime. Overtime directly reduces recovery time.
Consecutive Days Worked
lowAverage consecutive days: 13. Maximum: 27. Extended work streaks without recovery increase burnout risk exponentially.
Staffing Coverage
lowStaffing coverage: 38%. 18% of shifts go uncovered. 22% cross-trained. Inadequate coverage prevents recovery.
Workload Intensity
lowWorkload intensity: 74/100. 42% send after-hours email. High intensity + no disconnect = chronic stress accumulation.
Time Since Last Vacation
highAverage days since last vacation: 224. Any period over 180 days without a proper vacation puts employees in recovery deficit.
