Methodology & foundation
An audit is only as credible as the method behind it. Here you can read how the VitOScan is built, what scientific basis it rests on, what a report looks like and how the EU Health Certificate is awarded.
Methodology
We always combine multiple sources, self-evaluation, document assessment and interviews, so that no single source determines the full picture.
±180 validated questions on four main themes, completed by HR, prevention service and management.
Policy documents are assessed by independent, accredited auditors.
Conversations with key figures test and deepen the data.
Final score, benchmark and priority roadmap, presented to management.

Foundation
Our instruments and the figures we communicate are based on validated measurement instruments and publications from, among others:
Code on Well-being at Work (FPS Employment, Labour and Social Dialogue), legal framework on prevention and psychosocial risks.
ISO 45001, international standard for healthy and safe work.
Eurofound & EU-OSHA, European data on working conditions, absence and well-being.
Work and organisational psychology research by our knowledge partners (UM, HAN, TNO, Howest).
Belgian absence and HR reports (including social secretariats) for benchmark context.
Specific figures in our articles and the absence cost calculator are indicative. We provide the assumptions used and source references on request.
Certification
With a full VitOScan scoring above the threshold, your organisation has a chance of the EU Health Certificate, in bronze, silver or gold.
The certificate is awarded and monitored by the independent Foundation for Quality on Vitality, separate from OperaSana. This keeps the measurement separate from the issuing. You can find all information at eu-hc.eu and on our certification page.
The EU Health Certificate is valid for two years. A re-measurement follows, so that the level continues to reflect the current situation. SMEs that are starting out first obtain the Vital Employership Badge.
Please note: the EU Health Certificate is a separate product from the Dutch VWS badge.
We are happy to explain how the VitOScan arrives at a score and what that means for your organisation.
