Why Use Employee Survey Communication Templates?
Well-written employee survey communication templates can improve employee participation rates and we’re here to help with 17 templates you can use at your organization (find below). They anticipate and address common concerns.
“Advise employees from the outset that survey responses will be reported in aggregates only and kept absolutely confidential to ensure that everyone feels comfortable providing honest answers to the questions. Some employees may question the confidentiality of online surveys, given the ability to track IP addresses, e-mail addresses and other information. Having a third-party vendor conduct the survey usually helps assuage employees' fears of being identified on surveys.”
- Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM)
Skepticism around employee survey confidentiality, for instance, will never disappear. There’s always going to be skeptics. But expertly worded assurances can convince some of the most disbelieving people that their opinions are as safe as gold bullion at Fort Knox. Especially when a third-party survey vendor is involved. And because these survey communication templates have been used by numerous organizations year after year, they’re a verifiably effective tool.
The bonus is that your internal human resource staff can focus their time and effort on other important tasks. There’s no need to have someone plan what needs to be written. Or to craft messages when you can use and tailor templates like those from WorkTango. Simply and easily.
Sample Pre-Survey Leadership Notice Template
Leaders,
As you’re all aware, in our ongoing efforts to improve the employee experience at <COMPANY NAME>, we’re rolling out a <DESCRIPTION - i.e., short quarterly pulse survey> to ensure the voice of our people is being consulted and heard.
So that we can collect authentic feedback, we have partnered with a third-party; WorkTango will ensure that all responses remain anonymous. No one in the organization will have access to information revealing sentiment sources. Confidentiality is a major consideration for us on this initiative, and echoing this message to the members of your team will help us build trust with
our people.
On <DATE>, all employees will receive an email with instructions inviting their feedback. We’re hoping for full participation, and ask for your support by encouraging everyone on your teams to provide their insights.
Thank you very much in advance for your part in making this initiative a success.
