What This Measures

Beyond Job Placement

Most organizations measure job placement. They count the hire. They report the placement. They move on.

Twenty questions. Five domains. One score. The Durability Index evaluates your organization across Employment Retention, Wage Progression, Housing Stability, Financial Resilience, and Justice-System Stability.
