An in-depth diagnosis of your psychosocial work environment
The inpowrTM Diagnostic portrait of organizational dynamics
The inpowr© survey features a questionnaire designed to assess the psychosocial work environment while tracking key indicators of employee well-being, health and productivity. The results generated provide an organizational diagnosis that helps you identify the risks that should be prioritized in your action plans to help improve the overall workplace environment and prevent future risks.
What makes the inpowr© survey truly unique:
our survey is based on the Occupational Health and Well-being Questionnaire (OHWQ), developed and validated with over 12,000 workers in Quebec by Mahée Gilbert-Ouimet from the Department of Health Sciences at the Université du Québec à Rimouski and Manon Truchon, professor at the School of Psychology at Université Laval, the researchers behind the project. The OHWQ stands out as the most comprehensive of all peer-reviewed questionnaires for assessing psychosocial risks in the workplace.
it addresses all levels of work from macro-organizational to micro-organizational, as well as individual.
it can also include emerging risks, like digital stressors and ethical culture.
it features validated measures for all of the psychosocial risk factors most widely documented in the literature (workload, recognition, social support, etc.).
it includes our global well-being© scale.
it includes variables for measuring violence and harassment in the workplace.
it was specifically created to solicit suggestions from employees on how to improve their working environment.
Our comprehensive questionnaire on work-related psychosocial risk factors with key indicators for health, well-being and productivity can be adapted to any organizational reality and is available in English, French and Spanish.

on psychosocial risk factors.
The inpowr© organizational survey offers you a unique preventive approach that harnesses our global well-being© measurement scale to generate a comprehensive diagnostic portrait of your organization identifying work-related psychosocial risk factors, including emerging factors.
Our expert consultants will analyze your results accurately and efficiently, providing you with an exclusive, detailed report on the organizational health and well-being of your workforce. Details include:
- a list of identified risk factors affecting the physical and mental health of your employees;
- suggestions for customized action plans to better direct and implement your interventions to help prevent and minimize future risks;

*As defined by the World Health Organization’s (WHO) definition: “health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not simply the absence of disease or sickness.”
Why measure the health and well-being of your employees?
Simple: it’s a legal obligation. Starting in January 2024, Quebec employers with 20 or more employees are required to identify, analyze and include all psychosocial risk factors in their prevention programs, and develop clear action plans to address those issues (Act 27 to modernize the occupational health and safety regime).
