Work environment health in Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, and the Baltics

Why it matters

The causes of performance decline are often not where you expect them

When results stagnate or decline, the real reasons often remain hidden and cannot be seen with the naked eye. The work environment can quietly limit employees' ability to work at full capacity - and this does not appear in traditional KPIs.

  • Disengagement and demotivation

  • Higher risk of errors and employee turnover

  • Hotspots of burnout and exhaustion

  • Critical performance inconsistency across teams

  • Low initiative and accountability

These are signals of dysfunction that already affect results, while their causes remain invisible to conventional measurements.

What the barometer measures

What exactly we measure

The Baltic Work Environment Barometer combines the key indicators that determine an organization's ability to sustain performance over the long term.

Work Environment Health Index

Healthy functioning

The share of healthy, functioning employees - employees who are not burned out and are not disengaged from work.

This is the outcome indicator showing the extent to which an organization can ensure stable performance.

Burnout

The extent to which employees are exhausted and working through overload

Engagement

Energy, initiative, and willingness to contribute

Disengagement

The extent to which employees have distanced themselves from work, responsibility, and outcomes

Well-being

Whether employees feel energized, capable, and see meaning in their work.

Core value

What this gives an organization

Not just data, but clarity - where the risks are and where to look for causes.

  • A clear comparison with the Baltic benchmark

  • Early signals of performance risks

  • A basis for management decisions

  • The ability to identify critical nodes in the organization
