# Paper 1 Protocol and Methods (draft)

**Aim.** Assess feasibility and usability of a weekly aggregate pulse plus intervention register for unit-level occupational wellbeing conversations.

**Design.** Prospective 90-day single-unit feasibility study; volunteer unit, target roster 30–60 staff; anonymous 1–3 item pulse; no individual linkage.

**Primary feasibility measures.** Participation reaches 40% by week 3 and 60% by week 6; at least three interventions logged; sponsor utility at least 4/5; zero privacy incidents.

**Analysis.** Descriptive trends and missingness by collection period. Groups below k=8 suppressed. Intervention readouts are observational before/after — not causal. No predictive modelling.

**Governance.** DPA, DPIA, security packet, retention schedule, QI/research determination, and publication/authorship terms approved before collection. Synthetic fixtures remain available for reproducible methods testing.
