Data-driven wellbeing | KPMG launches 'energy check-in' meetings with staff flagged as burnout risks

Accounting giant KPMG has revealed plans to run ‘energy check-ins' with employees who are at risk of burnout and further wellbeing issues.

First reported by Fortune, the company is rolling out the initiative to its 36,000 employees following a small trial period held last year.

It is reported that the system will be based on KPMG’s internal data which pinpoints matters such as how much time an employee has been working over their contracted hours, the amount of annual leave they have taken, and how many meetings they have been attending.

If KPMG’s system spots that a worker has been working too much and/or has been taking too little time off, it will prompt a manager to check-in with said employee.
