METHODOLOGY: THE SCIENCE OF SOCIAL WORTH™

​

Quantifying the Intangible.

​

THE PROBLEM: THE FAILURE OF LAGGING INDICATORS

For decades, the industrial sector has relied on "Lagging Indicators" to measure safety and performance. Metrics like TRIR (Total Recordable Incident Rate) and DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) tell you after an accident has happened.

​

There has been a critical lack of reliable Leading Indicators—predictive metrics that identify human error and disengagement before they result in an incident.

THE HYPOTHESIS

​

The 3P Initiative posits that Occupational Social Worth™ is a scientifically valid Leading Indicator of operational risk.

• The Logic: High levels of authentic community engagement foster "Psychological Safety" and brotherhood within a crew.

• The Prediction: Crews with high "Social Capital" will demonstrate a statistically significant reduction in turnover and safety incidents compared to low-engagement crews.

​

THE INSTRUMENT: THE COMMUNITY IMPACT SCORE™ (CIS)

​

To test this hypothesis and manage this risk, we developed the Community Impact Score™ (CIS). This is not a "Charity Score"; it is a weighted algorithmic assessment that measures an organization across three distinct vectors.

​

​

​

​

​

​

 

 

 

 

VECTOR 1: PARTICIPATION RATE (The "Buy-In")

• Metric: The percentage of the workforce actively engaged in voluntary community service.

• What it Reveals: This measures the "Pulse" of the culture. A high participation rate indicates shared purpose and high morale—key defensible factors against burnout and complacency.

​

VECTOR 2: THE TRUTH GAP™ (The "Verification")

• Metric: The statistical variance between Corporate Policy (what leadership says values are) and Employee Reality (what the field feels values are).

• What it Reveals: Integrity. A low variance means the culture is authentic. A high variance is a red flag for "Greenwashing" and operational disconnect, often correlating with hidden safety risks.

​

VECTOR 3: ECONOMIC OUTPUT (The "Impact")

• Metric: The tangible economic value of service hours contributed to the local municipality.

• What it Reveals: The organization’s "Social License to Operate." This quantifies the company's status as a civic asset.

​

THE PROTOCOL: DOUBLE-BLIND VALIDATION

We do not accept self-reported data at face value. To ensure the integrity of the CIS Score, The 3P Initiative utilizes a Double-Blind Data Protocol.

1. Administrative Baseline: Leadership submits a policy assessment outlining their stated goals and support structures.

2. Field Sensor Data: A randomized, anonymous sampling of the workforce provides feedback via our "Peer Recognition" system.

3. Algorithmic Correlation: Our system compares the two datasets. Discrepancies are flagged as "Risk Variance," requiring remediation before a score can be certified.

​

The Result: A score that insurance carriers and government agencies can trust.

DATA PRIVACY & HUMAN SYSTEMS INTEGRATION

We operate under strict Human Systems Integration (HSI) ethical standards.

• Anonymity: All employee sentiment data is aggregated and anonymized. No individual responses are ever shared with management.

• Security: We adhere to the strict data protection standards outlined in our Privacy Policy.

• Ownership: The specific "Risk Intelligence" derived from the CIS belongs to the Partner Organization to inform their safety and retention strategies.
