Things to consider when running your survey
Most disengaged employees don't bother responding to surveys. Yes, it's a high probability that your low survey participation rate could be linked to low employee engagement and poor morale. So, how do you ensure good survey response rates?
- Secure commitment from Senior Leaders. Ensuring that you have buy-in from senior leaders and full commitment in the organisation's survey initiative is the single most important aspect of ensuring high levels of employee participation.
- Communicate expectations to leaders. All leaders in the organisation should understand the purpose of the survey and what it means to them. Tell them they will receive their team's results and that they will need to collevtively develop a team action plan.
- Develop a value proposition for participants. Explain how employees will obtain value from the employee survey initiative by clarifying how they and the organisation as a whole will benefit from it. Communicate the basic objectives of the project to all employees.
- Guarantee respondent confidentiality. Give employees full assurance, freedom and security to submit honest opinions, without having to worry about potential consequences and being reprimand by their line managers. Leadership needs to communicate that the engagement survey is completely anonymous.
- Provide time to take the survey. Employees should be able to complete questionnaires in work time. Consider setting aside a designated time (e.g. 10 minutes) during the workday when all employees can fill out the survey at the same time.

"Many people only equate bullying with bullies. But it actually flourishes when the incentive to treat people badly is able to take root. That's why our program has a clear focus on identifying and mitigating these root causes, that are often hidden away." - Professor Michelle Tuckey
