Traditional HR metrics often miss a crucial question: Can people sustain their performance without burning out?

With burnout rates rising and only 44% of adults reporting they’re thriving, organizations need better ways to assess and protect employee energy.

Enter: the People Sustainability Toolkit.

This free, research-backed resource helps HR leaders and executives track what really drives well-being and performance. Moving beyond surface-level engagement surveys or PTO trackers, the Toolkit introduces Whole-Person Metrics—from “Focus Time Ratio” to “Change Resilience Check-ins.” It includes 12 people-centered well-being indicators that measure capacity, motivation, alignment, and workplace safety—before burnout shows up in attrition reports.

At the heart of the Toolkit is the People Well-being Compass, a self-assessment tool that helps teams evaluate emotional, mental, physical, and social well-being. Facilitated by Keka HR, the Compass offers a simple yet powerful way to spot early signs of overload across teams—making it easier to act before performance dips.

This Toolkit is ideal for CHROs, people leaders, and HR strategists looking to shift from reactive wellness perks to proactive work design. Whether used in quarterly check-ins, 1:1s, or leadership workshops, it equips organizations to design jobs and cultures that enhance—not drain—human capacity.

Pair it with your existing tools, align it with manager scorecards, or use it as a conversation starter in your next leadership meeting. However you choose to apply it, the message is clear: Sustainable performance starts with sustainable people.
