Researchers at the Black Dog Institute have been involved in measuring workplace satisfaction and the impact of a range of variables (e.g. depression, gender, occupational level, length of time employed) on this. Job satisfaction is a widely researched topic, but there are few accurate measures available. A recent study at the Institute helped develop the Workplace Wellbeing Questionnaire, a self-report measure of wellbeing in the workplace. Over time, theyhave built up a database of scores that allows people to compare themselves to others (i.e. in different occupations, across genders, etc).
