Employee Satisfaction Survey

cwells

Does anyone have a survey they would consider sharing? We are in the process of surveying our employees as part of meeting several requirements under TS16949. Any help would be appreciated. xpray

TS16949?? Please explain.

POPEYE

under TS16949.

Is that anything like BR549???? If anyone wonders what that is, think JR. Samples!!!

My experiences with EE surveys has led me to the opinion that they are useless. Your results are totally on "What have you done for me lately" attitudes of your EEs. If their happy, glowing opinions, if not..........

Some of that attitude is also brought on by lack of follow-up from the survey givers. Not taking action on surveys greatly reduces the effectiveness and thusly creates non-beneficial data.

CWELLS: I too have found formal surveys to be a real problem generator. Interpersonal/employee relations with the employees is an HR area of interest and concerns. I have found that my getting out of this office and out there and available to converse with our employees and supervisors lets me know direct from the "HOG's MOUTH", "what is right and wrong" and what are their needs individually and as a group. Responding then becomes my responsibility to provide worth and value to me as a professional HR. It hurts me most when I hear that "I am a big shot and no one wants to be involved with me, because to meet with the HR is a real negative".

If you need a survey to tell you what the employees, "members of your team", need and want, then I would recommend you self evaluate your interpersonal relationships with the company. You just might find out that it is the HR element that truly fits the "noose" around the company neck. Surveys are what HR consultants use to make money for them and most of the time will cause the HR element a lot more head-ache than they are worth.

Just before I came on board with the company 2 years ago, the company conducted a survey to co-inside with an effort to make the company "A Great Place To Work." As I understand, a consulting firm was engaged to conduct the survey, talley the scores, and explain the results. I still don't quite understand the results since everything is in the negative; i.e. this many folks indicate they do not agree that manager's don't make them feel small. Maybe this is a poor example, but you get the idea.

Anyway, what did result was the formation of several teams to investigate and offer recommendations that would lead to a better place to work. The teams are still in place and morale from the employees is good. A second survey is soon to take place to record any change.

If you want me to find out who the consulting firm was, let me know. I do know that it was a rather expensive endeavor.

We also hired a consulting group to conduct our surveys. This took the emotion OUT of reading and deciphering the responses. Additionally, such firms are trained to ask questions that really get the answers you're seeking. The way a question is posed can change the entire response.

We did a survey once that clearly revealed a high level of employee dissatisfaction and the CEO, who was more intent on CYAing himself, spun the numbers statistically to show a positive morale. The employees just hee hawed and didn't bother to participate in any follow up meetings. But, in answer to your question, visit [url]www.selfsurveys.com[/url] for a sample, or just do a search on "free employee surveys" and you'll get lots of links for samples.
