How to implement Work PositiveCI in your workplace

The process of implementing and embedding Work PositiveCI into your organisation involves several stages.

Stage 1. Prepare checklist / key requirements

By the time you have completed the preparation stage you should have performed the following:

  • Identified key stakeholders and secured commitment (including senior management, occupational health and safety personnel, employees / representatives)
  • Established a Work PositiveCI Steering Group
  • Developed a project plan
  • Decided on which version of Work PositiveCI to run

Stage 2. Measure checklist

By the time you have completed the measure stage you should have performed the following:

  • Considered employee profiles and occupational roles
  • Deployed your chosen Work PositiveCI  employee survey
  • Assessed your current workforce outcome indicators
  • Assessed your current support measures and resources

Once you have completed profiling your organisation you are ready to start working on your action plan. Your action plan should outline exactly what is required to reach your Work PositiveCI objectives. 

Stage 3. Action Plan stage checklist

By the time you have completed the Action Plan stage you should have performed the following:

  • Communicated your survey results
  • Prioritised issues through consultation
  • Established key deliverables for your action plan
  • Secured senior stakeholder commitment
  • Launched your action plan 

Stage 4: Review

Programme evaluation and review provides essential feedback that will allow you modify your plan and better meet the needs of your employees and stakeholders. You should:

  • monitor against your action plan to ensure that agreed actions are taking place;
  • evaluate the effectiveness of the solutions you implemented against agreed targets and performance indicators (e.g. absenteeism, reports of interpersonal conflict)
  • decide what further action or data gathering, if any, is needed
