It’s important to monitor the strategies you’re using while your healthy workplace plan is in action.
This process (process evaluation) can be completed by keeping good records, just as you would for any project taking place in the workplace.
We’ve created an activity and event log template (PDF, 204.7 KB) to help you capture all the details you’ll need to monitor your programs and help plan for the future. Here is a list of common process evaluation metrics that you can incorporate into your monitoring program.
