Welcome to our Employee Survey!

This survey is designed to help us better understand how you feel about important aspects of your work life. Your opinions are very important to us so we would ask you to take your time to complete the survey and to be as honest as possible when answering scoring each statement. We will not know your individual responses but we will be able to analyse the collective response of all employees and that will help us to identify and then fix any issues and concerns. This survey is 100% anonymous.

Completing the survey is easy. For each statement provided, you simply score it according to a smiley face that indicates how you feel about that statement. For example:

I fully understand what the company is trying to achieve and I am aware of the main business goals

Read the statement, think about it, then click on the smiley face that best describes how you feel about it.

It's that easy.
