Survei denyut nadi karyawan:

Ini adalah survei singkat yang dapat sering dikirim untuk memeriksa pendapat karyawan Anda tentang suatu masalah dengan cepat. Survei ini terdiri dari lebih sedikit pertanyaan (tidak lebih dari 10) untuk mendapatkan informasi dengan cepat. Ini dapat diberikan secara berkala (bulanan / mingguan / triwulanan).

Pertemuan empat mata:

Mengadakan rapat berkala selama satu jam untuk obrolan informal dengan setiap anggota tim adalah cara terbaik untuk mendapatkan gambaran sebenarnya tentang apa yang terjadi dengan mereka. Karena ini adalah percakapan yang aman dan pribadi, ini membantu Anda mendapatkan detail yang lebih baik tentang suatu masalah.

eNPS:

eNPS (employee Net Promoter score) adalah salah satu cara paling sederhana namun efektif untuk menilai pendapat karyawan Anda tentang perusahaan Anda. Ini termasuk satu pertanyaan menarik yang mengukur loyalitas. Contoh pertanyaan eNPS meliputi: Seberapa besar kemungkinan Anda merekomendasikan perusahaan kami kepada orang lain? Karyawan menanggapi survei eNPS pada skala 1-10, di mana 10 menunjukkan bahwa mereka 'sangat mungkin' untuk merekomendasikan perusahaan dan 1 menandakan bahwa mereka 'sangat tidak mungkin' untuk merekomendasikannya.

Berdasarkan tanggapan, karyawan dapat ditempatkan dalam tiga kategori berbeda:

Promotor
Karyawan yang telah merespons positif atau setuju.
Pencela
Karyawan yang bereaksi negatif atau tidak setuju.
Pasif
Karyawan yang tetap netral dengan tanggapan mereka.
