SureHire explains Self-Reported Values
Self-reported values are gathered either through a questionnaire handed to a patient for their answers or directly from an interview with the patient. These values are a common measure used in workplace health surveys to understand how employees feel about their own health.
Self-reported values can either target a specific topic related to workplace health or can address multiple characteristics of the topic in order to solve health issues inside an organization or company or assess the overall health level of a workforce.
