NWLB's worker-level index of how well-positioned an individual is for the next five years of working life. Five dimensions, 0–100 score, predictive validity on three labor-market outcomes.
Free 15-question worker diagnostic across the five HAPI dimensions. Client-side, no signup, no data leaves your device. Get a 0–100 score plus three concrete recommendations.
The full think-tank piece on the construct: five dimensions, country-level patterns, predictive validity on involuntary job loss, re-employment speed, and wage trajectory.
72 named occupations placed on a 2×2 of AI exposure × worker bargaining power. Filterable by sector, with per-occupation evidence and downloadable data under CC BY 4.0.
72 occupations, 11 sectors, four quadrants — Compounders, Treadmillers, Negotiators, Casualties. Click any role for evidence, sources, and a "what to do if you're in this role" panel.
The think-tank piece behind the map. The 2×2 framework, the evidence quadrant by quadrant, and why bargaining power is the variable AI policy debates keep missing.
Thirteen more pieces, each built on the same editorial principles: original frameworks, named sources, no fabricated quotes, schema-rich for machine citation.
Why half of veterans leave their first civilian job — and the four-phase transition playbook (Translation → Placement → Onboarding → Retention) that programs like Microsoft MSSA and Amazon Military actually use.
04 Think Tank · Worker RightsCalifornia Prop 22, the EU Platform Work Directive, Washington's portable benefits, the UK "worker" status — four serious frameworks competing to replace the employee/contractor binary. Side by side.
05 Knowledge Hub · Mental HealthWhy workplace mental-health spending rose 4.5× from 2019 and burnout still rose 11 points. Read against the actual evidence: Maslach, ICD-11, the meditation-app RCTs. Plus an honest reallocation budget.
06 Community Support · WomenWhat's left of the gender pay gap is mostly about care, time, and Claudia Goldin's "greedy work" premium. A five-lever framework, country-by-country, with employer moves that don't require waiting for policy.
07 Knowledge HubU.S. registered apprenticeships grew 65% from 2014 to 2024 — into cybersecurity, healthcare, AI, advanced manufacturing. Where the growth is, what makes a state system actually work, and what the next four years decide.
08 Think Tank · EquityA 2026 inventory of what the 2023–2025 retrenchment actually changed, what's still working on the evidence, and what to rebuild around now. With a table separating substance from theatre.
09 Knowledge HubThe productivity case for blanket RTO was settled in 2023 by Nick Bloom's RCT data. What 2025–2026 mandates are actually about (real estate, manager training, junior development) — and what hybrid done well looks like.
10 Knowledge HubWhy most workforce-productivity software measures activity, not output — and the operational upgrade firms actually improving output have made. Built on DORA, DX, Newport's Slow Productivity, and the MIT keystroke-monitoring data.
11 Community Support · Job Search60–75% of knowledge-work hires above $80K come through referral, recruiter, or internal mobility — not from public applications. A four-step playbook (Map · Signal · Sequence · Convert) for working the hidden market.
12 Community Support · Lifelong LearningMost reskilling content is written for HR buyers, not workers. This is the worker-side playbook: diagnose what's actually at risk in your role, stage the move inside your current job, and pivot deliberately — not in a panic.
13 Community Support · Race & EquityWhere the race-gender gap actually lives — four mechanisms (sorting, hiring, place, within-firm patterns) and the interventions that move each.
14 Community Support · DisabilityThe U.S. 38-point disability employment gap, why it persists, and the four interventions with the strongest evidence base for closing it.
15 Community Support · Aging WorkforceA quarter of the U.S. labor force is now 55 or older. The age-discrimination, ergonomics, and policy moves the data actually supports.
16 Community Support · Career DevelopmentWhy most corporate mentorship programs fail to move promotion rates — and what sponsorship actually looks like.
17 Knowledge Hub · LeadershipThe 2010s leadership-development industry trained managers for a workplace that no longer exists. The five-component new operating model.
