Essential Survey Questions

The article outlines 11 key questions that should be included in an employee benefits survey. These range from general satisfaction queries to specific inquiries about health insurance, retirement plans, and work-life balance.

One crucial question highlighted is: “On a scale of 1-10, how satisfied are you with the current range of benefits options and benefits packages offered by the company?” Marson notes that this question “provides a general overview of the employee’s feelings about company benefits.”

Health and Wellness Benefits

A significant portion of the recommended questions focuses on health and wellness benefits. Marson suggests asking: “Do you find the health insurance coverage — range of coverage, deductibles, co-pays, etc. — adequate for your needs?” This question can provide valuable insights into employee satisfaction with one of the most critical benefits.

Work-Life Balance and Flexibility

The article also emphasizes the importance of inquiring about work-life balance and flexibility. One suggested question is: “How satisfied are you with the flexible work schedule options provided?” This can help companies gauge employee sentiment towards remote work policies and flexible scheduling options.

Analyzing Survey Results

Marson provides guidance on how HR staff should analyze survey results. He advises looking for overall patterns and breaking down results by different workforce segments. The article states, “While company leaders might not find it possible to act on every employee concern, leaders should prioritize key issues that were brought to light by the survey and achieve some quick wins.”

Continuous Improvement

The article concludes by emphasizing the importance of conducting benefits surveys periodically. Marson suggests that “HR staff should send out benefits surveys periodically and compare responses to previous submissions in order to note any improvements in employee sentiment.”

This useful guide to employee benefits surveys underscores the importance of regularly assessing and adjusting benefits packages to meet employee needs and maintain a competitive edge in talent acquisition and retention.
