Employee survey

The Trust Index tells you how your organization scores on trust. For more than 30 years we know that this is the most important indicator of success in organizations. This is the added value of the Trust Index compared to other employee surveys that focus on other themes.

Because of this, the Trust Index is also not an employee satisfaction survey, because it measures more than just satisfaction.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with satisfied employees. But there is a big difference between a satisfied employee and an employee who can and wants to use his or her full potential. In the latter case, employees actually contribute to innovation and growth in an organization.

Therefore, to be successful as an organization, you need more than satisfied employees. An environment where trust, pride and fun are central and where every employee feels seen, heard and appreciated makes everyone able and willing to use his or her full potential.

So the Trust Index is not an employee satisfaction survey or employee engagement survey. It is much more than that.

We can look at the questions from your current employee survey together, to avoid losing data and ensure that you get the same (and probably more) insights with Trust Index.

If you're missing certain questions, you can always add them yourself (if you choose the Analyze or Accelerate package).

Yes, but only if the Trust Index adds value alongside your current employee survey. Ask yourself if the purpose of the Trust Index is different from the purpose of the current survey.

If the purposes are different, then the Trust Index can coexist with the current survey. Be sure to plan well and make sure employees know what is being asked of them and what you will do with the results.

For example, we see that many international organizations are required to conduct a regular employee survey as an annual measuring point. In addition, they use the Trust Index to really get to work with the results and determine action plans at the national and team level. In addition, they then also take advantage of the opportunity to become certified.

If the goals are the same, our advice is: stick to one employee survey. In that case, determine what you think an employee survey should meet and choose the survey that fits best.

Tip: also take into account survey fatigue among your employees.

Yes, you can if you choose the Analyze or Accelerate package.

The Trust Index consists of 60 statements, 2 open-ended questions, 5 demographic questions and 3 multiple-choice questions. This survey is based on universal values and therefore the same in every country and in every organization, regardless of size or industry.

Own questions therefore never replace other questions, but complement the Trust Index.

Yes, you can with the Accelerate package. With offices in 60 countries worldwide, you can participate in the Trust Index and become certified as an international organization in multiple countries. The survey is the same in each country.
