5 Reasons Why HR Needs To Invest In Employee Pulse Surveys

Work has been challenging for everyone lately.

In particular, employees are having to bear the responsibility of producing consistent results despite the unprecedented turbulence and recent disruptions.

As part of a company’s HR or Management team, you have to check in on them more frequently to assess:

their overall welfare and mental health
if they feel sufficiently supported across all aspects of their job and
if they have the means to succeed, despite working remotely or under unusual conditions.

Most businesses have been doing this through lengthy surveys. Unfortunately, these tend to not be very effective in resolving employee engagement issues.

To bridge this gap between survey results and employee engagement, more companies are now investing in pulse surveys. Here’s what you need to know about pulse surveys and how they can address your business’ needs.

QWL: The Best Way To Conduct Employee Engagement Surveys

Employee engagement surveys, as discussed in our previous blog, have an important role in collating and understanding your team’s levels of motivation, involvement and satisfaction towards your company and the work they do.

Most of the time, employee engagement surveys are conducted through generic ready made pulse surveys that can include an option of creating your own questions.

While this is the default option, a Quality of Work Life (QWL) engagement survey offers a much higher and more useful level of insight.

Here’s why conducting a QWL engagement survey can help your business in many ways by learning more about your staff.

7 Best Practices For Conducting Employee Engagement Surveys

Hiring great people is one thing. However, to achieve growth and success, the key lies in retaining them over the longer term.

Employee engagement is a crucial part of talent retention because engaged employees are more satisfied with what they do. They find fulfilment in achieving their tasks and they are happy working with their colleagues and assisting your customers.

How your employees feel towards their job also impacts the ways they deliver results and contribute to the overall goals of your business.

So, how do you measure their engagement? By conducting an employee engagement survey.

When done correctly, it can help you assess employee situations better and gain helpful insights for overall business improvement.
