Proactive notifications of burnout risk

Most organisations discover burnout after it is too late. An employee goes on stress leave or quits without explanation. Exit interviews reveal they had been struggling for months while no one noticed. These preventable losses cost you talent, knowledge and morale you cannot replace.

What's inside

8 features making it real.

  1. Trust your data with research-backed survey methodology

    01

    Trust your data with research-backed survey methodology

    Zoios is built on scientifically validated questions that explain 69% of the variance in job satisfaction, giving you reliable and meaningful engagement data. The framework is grounded in occupational psychology research, not made up arbitrarily, so you are measuring what actually matters for well-being. The scientific foundation means you can trust your scores, compare them confidently over time and justify people initiatives to leadership with credible data.

  2. Let employees request help confidentially when they're struggling

    02

    Let employees request help confidentially when they're struggling

    Zoios notifies employees scoring in the problematic strain range and lets them anonymously alert their designated contact person that they would like support. The employee stays in control with a consent system: they choose whether to activate the notification, and their identity is never revealed unless they consent. This creates a safe channel for struggling employees to ask for help at a critical moment, enabling proactive conversations that prevent burnout while respecting privacy.

  3. Identify employees at serious burnout risk

    03

    Identify employees at serious burnout risk

    Zoios automatically flags when someone scores 50 or above on strain, indicating significant stress that risks leading to sick leave. The problematic strain levels correlate strongly with very low well-being (average score of 53) and significantly elevated risk of prolonged absence. Early detection means you can intervene with support, workload adjustment or time off before someone burns out completely, protecting both the employee and the organisation.

  4. Understand whether stress comes from work volume or other factors

    04

    Understand whether stress comes from work volume or other factors

    Zoios provides a workload-versus-strain chart that reveals whether team stress is driven by volume or by other complications like complexity, unclear expectations or personal issues. You see teams with high strain but low workload (pointing to non-volume issues) or high workload without strain (showing people are coping). The analysis prevents the common mistake of reducing workload when the real problem is poor collaboration or unclear priorities, and helps you target the right solution.

  5. Track engagement for temporary project teams and client assignments

    05

    Track engagement for temporary project teams and client assignments

    Zoios allows custom segments for project teams or client assignments, so engagement measurement reaches beyond the permanent organisational structure. Tag employees with the projects or clients they are working on and see well-being scores for those groups. The flexibility helps project-based organisations understand how different engagements affect their people and identify which clients or projects create problematic strain.

  6. Track how specific engagement factors evolve across months

    06

    Track how specific engagement factors evolve across months

    Zoios shows each well-being driver's score over time so you can see whether recognition, development or other factors are improving or declining across periods. The trend lines help you assess whether initiatives are working, like checking if your new performance-review process actually lifted development scores. By tracking individual drivers rather than a single overall score, you understand the components of your engagement story and can measure the impact of targeted interventions.

  7. Uncover the real drivers behind your engagement challenges

    07

    Uncover the real drivers behind your engagement challenges

    Zoios uses AI to analyse engagement patterns across your data and identify the underlying causes of well-being issues. Instead of just showing low scores, it examines relationships between drivers, comments and segments to surface insights like 'Recognition is the biggest lever for improving well-being in your Sales team.' This holistic analysis helps you move beyond surface-level observations to understand what's really affecting your people, and where to focus.

  8. Get specific action suggestions tailored to your data

    08

    Get specific action suggestions tailored to your data

    Zoios delivers personalised recommendations based on your engagement data, telling managers and HR exactly what to focus on to improve well-being. Instead of generic advice, the AI coach analyses your team's driver scores, comments and patterns and suggests concrete next steps like 'Focus on recognition in your next team meeting' or 'Address workload concerns with your two senior engineers.' These contextual recommendations turn data into action and help busy leaders prioritise the right conversations.

Most organisations discover burnout after it is too late. An employee goes on stress leave or, worse, simply quits without explanation. Exit interviews reveal they had been struggling for months while no one noticed. These preventable losses cost you talent, institutional knowledge and team morale.

Zoios catches burnout risk before it becomes burnout reality with proactive strain notifications. When someone scores 50+ on strain (indicating serious stress that risks leading to sick leave), the platform automatically alerts them and offers a confidential way to request support. Employees stay in control: they choose whether to activate a notification to their designated contact person, and their identity stays protected unless they explicitly consent.

This early-warning system has prevented countless stress-related absences. It creates a safe channel for struggling employees to ask for help at the critical moment when intervention actually works. Instead of suffering in silence until they break, employees have a private way to signal they need support.

For managers and HR, these alerts transform burnout prevention from reactive firefighting into proactive care. You can intervene with workload adjustments, prioritisation help or time off before someone crashes completely. The employee gets support when they need it most. The organisation prevents costly sick leave and potential turnover. Everyone wins when you catch strain early instead of dealing with burnout consequences later.
