Employee Engagement Survey is a cornerstone feature of Xoxoday Empuls. The survey feature has been designed in collaboration with SHRM, a professional human resources association who is the foremost expert, convener, and thought leader on issues impacting today’s evolving workplaces. This feature has been developed with extensive tests across multiple participant organizations to ensure high validity, reliability, and usability - bringing with it the scientific, ‘pulse’ method of administration, and improve the employee experience.
Even though bulky annual surveys were once the world order, technology has made them redundant. Empuls engagement surveys go one step further, by dynamically collecting rich cross-sectional data with intelligent sampling and short bursts of questions. This ‘pulse’ mechanism stands out because of:
While survey modules in the market are sufficient to measure current levels of engagement, they do not have channels to take corrective actions - calling for managing disconnected solutions. Empuls closes the loop by taking corrective actions all through one common platform. Empuls designed to be extensible, offering a wide range of corrective solutions to any engagement issues identified over the Pulse survey. Actions, follow-ups, and tracking remain within a unified product instead of multiple, loosely coupled ones.
HR professionals are data-challenged to measure metrics and conduct in-depth analysis to make data-driven decisions and demonstrate the return on investment of key HR expenditures. Empuls Pulse Surveys generate extensive and meaningful data that empowers HR leaders to finely measure and monitor each of their initiatives and policies. The advantages of these, being:
NPS has been proven to be a highly predictive metric for customer satisfaction and loyalty for businesses across the world. Employee NPS (known as NPS) extends the same concept to employee satisfaction and loyalty. By asking one question, organizations tend to understand their current levels of employee satisfaction and hence, improve the employee experience.
The Empuls engagement survey comes with such an eNPS question that gives a singular snapshot of the high-level status quo of the organization. It also comes along with 67 engagement questions that help HRs delve deeper to discover pockets of engagement areas within the organization that needs attention.
