PERMAH Workplace Evaluation

The PERMAH Tool Evaluation for Workplaces

More than 180,500 PERMAH Tool surveys have now been completed across over 1,310 workplaces in 145 countries, and eighty-three percent of survey users report that they would recommend the tool to other workplaces.

Why is the PERMAH Tool so popular? Everything—from the PERMAH Tool questions and results insights to the reports, guides, and additional resources—has been designed through an evidence-informed and strengths-based lens. This approach both normalises struggle and importantly provides users with a highly effective and flexible evidence-based wellbeing toolbox, ready to use.
