Employee Wellbeing Scale

The Employee Wellbeing Scale (EWS) measures workers' subjective wellbeing across five dimensions: vitality (energy and physical health), motivation (engagement with work), self-perception (confidence and self-worth), social connection (relationships and belonging), and general life satisfaction. Developed by Page and Vella-Brodrick, the EWS captures holistic employee wellbeing—the balance of psychological, social, and physical health that enables people to thrive at work and in life. The scale is used for occupational health surveillance, evaluation of workplace wellness interventions, and organizational culture assessment.
