Biometric Data in Workplace

Meaning

Biometric Data in the Workplace refers to the collection and utilization of quantifiable physiological characteristics, such as body mass index, blood pressure, glucose, and specific hormonal markers like cortisol or HbA1c, from employees within an occupational setting, often as part of a corporate wellness initiative. This data provides an objective, snapshot assessment of an individual’s current metabolic and endocrine status, offering a basis for personalized health guidance or risk stratification. The clinical utility of this data hinges on its interpretation within the context of systemic physiological function and the impact of the work environment on stress hormones.
