Index & Insights is the user-facing measurement, employee-experience, results and research area of the WWEC Workplace Excellence System™. The WWEC Workplace Excellence Index™ is the measurement entry point to that system: it provides a structured assessment of an organisation's workplace excellence position across the eight WWEC Workplace Excellence Dimensions, helping organisations understand their current position, identify strengths and improvement priorities, and establish a foundation for further assessment and improvement. The Index is part of the WWEC Workplace Excellence System™. The Index is not the WWEC Women-Centred Workplace™ Certification. Index participation or an Index score does not guarantee, constitute or imply certification.
The WWEC Workplace Excellence Index™ is a self-assessment and awareness tool. It is not a certification, accreditation, audit, independent conformity assessment or legal opinion. Completing the Index or receiving a high score does not mean that an organisation is WWEC Certified.

The WWEC Workplace Excellence Index™ is an indicative self-assessment. It is not WWEC certification. Certification requires a formal scope, evidence, employee-experience review, assessment, scoring and a controlled certification decision under the applicable WWEC Certification Scheme.
An Index score is not a certification decision. Completing the Index calculator does not guarantee, constitute or imply the WWEC Women-Centred Workplace™ Certification.
Scoring
How your score is calculated.
Strongly Disagree = 0, Disagree = 25, Neither = 50, Agree = 75, Strongly Agree = 100. Each dimension is the average of its valid statement scores; the overall Index is the equal-weighted average of the eight dimensions.
