Role Fit Score

The Role Fit indicator measures how well employees feel they are suited to their roles. This can include factors such as the alignment of employee skills and interests with the requirements of their roles. It also means the availability of training and development opportunities, and the level of support and guidance provided to help employees succeed. A high Role Fit score indicates an organization that matches employees with roles that are well suited to their abilities and interests. It also indicates that your organisation provides the support and resources needed for them to thrive and excel.
