What Do You Want to Achieve?

Think about why you’re investigating  and what your analysis is going to measure.

If you’re trying to find out whether an initiative has been successful, see if you followed your mission statement and met your objectives and objectives.

If you do not have a mission statement or goals or goals, decide with management and your worker committee how your organization will measure success.

For example, you can measure success by changes in –

• Physical measures (e.g., strength, flexibility, waist circumference of employees).

• Psychological measures (e.g., staff member morale, satisfaction levels, stress levels).

• Productivity measures (e.g., decrease in absenteeism rates, increased worker productivity).

Thinking About Employees

If you are considering making improvements to the initiative, think about whether the initiative is still relevant and appropriate for employees. Find out when there are any barriers to participation in the program or to participation in exercise during the workday.

As employees are the ones participating in the program, it’s important to give them a chance to provide feedback on the exercise initiative.

Selecting an Evaluation Method

Decide on your investigation method. Both measurable results (e.g., absenteeism rates or questionnaire responses) and descriptive results (e.g., one-on-one interviews or focus groups) may be used to evaluate.

The method you select will depend on the time and funding available and what you want to measure.

Determining How to Do the Examination

Plan when and where you’ll do your analysis (and who will be analyzed). for additional information, peruse the “Kinds of Evaluations” section on this website.

You could want to pilot test your analysis (e.g., with members of the worker committee) before sending it out to staff members. the worker committee may also want to evaluate the initiative’s planning process.

Doing the Examination

• Compare your results to baseline information (i.e., investigation results from before the launch of your initiative). When you do not have this information, save your investigation results to compare with later results.

You can also look at other information you might have, like staff member satisfaction survey results.

• Analyse and share meaningful and easy-to-understand results with management and staff members.

• Investigation results could be used to improve the current exercise program and/or to develop new programs in future.
