Is our employee survey data secure?

Protostar has the UK government-backed Cyber Essentials certification. All employees hold a level 2 award in the principles of cyber security and we meet all of the requirements for GDPR.

Can you help us communicate the survey results?

Of course! You receive an infographic like the one on the right, plus a slide deck that covers the results in far more detail. We can present the findings to any group you wish if you prefer that we do it.

What if we have more than 1000 employees?

No problem, as one of the top employee engagement survey vendors, it just means that there would need to be more than one day of focus groups (if required) in order to have a representative sample. Tell us how many employees you want to survey and their geographic spread and we will send you a proposal. Our employee survey tool can easily deal with large or small organsiations.

Our employees are spread all over the world - can the survey cope?

As long as they have access to the internet and speak one of the 78 languages our translators use then no problem. We will identify the most likely languages at the start of the project and then users just select their language from the top of the home screen. We are specialists in cross cultural surveys and diversity and inclusion surveys.

How do Protostar provide employee surveys for such a low price?

The real question is why do most employee survey providers in the UK charge 3x what we do! However, as experts in lean processes, we live by our own teachings. We have very low overheads and pass on these savings to you. We also create dashboards that do not require you to purchase a license for each user. Our online employee survey tool is highly cost effective and is why we are regular winners of best employee engagement survey specialists awards.

I have seen apps that continually gather data, are they not better than an annual survey?

20% of our business is helping clients who use those apps to try and make sense of the data they provide. For instance, if one week, 75% of staff are happy with something, then 60%, then 50% and then 80%, what does that mean? You might have seen pulse surveys at airport security where you select a happy or sad face, this allows a manager to monitor sudden changes and quickly reallocate staff if the responses get lower. However, unless they are monitoring the data constantly, it is of little use. With employee engagement, you are unlikely to be able to respond instantly and there might be no specific cause, it could just be natural variation. Therefore, great care should be taken using staff survey apps - they look great but the data can be meaningless. At Protostar, we are only interested in providing you with meaningful, valid, and reliable employee engagement data. We regularly win awards for our employee engagement and satisfaction surveys.

RESEARCH BASED EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT SURVEYS

Our award winning best employee engagement surveys are based around the MOVIE Model Of Employee Engagement Drivers, which is the result of extensive research and an analysis of the last 50,000 survey and focus group responses. This is one of the many reasons we are regarded as a leading employee engagement survey company.

Driven by the MOVIE model, the typical employee engagement topics covered are:

✓ Leadership and Management

✓ Teamwork & Collaboration

✓ Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

✓ Pay & Benefits

✓ Conditions

✓ Communication

✓ Development

✓ Wellbeing & Stress

✓ Trust and Engagement

STAFF FOCUS GROUPS

Employee engagement surveys can be followed by focus groups.

Focus groups are a key component of the employee engagement survey process, as raw data can be deceptive. By meeting with a representative sample of staff we can add greater clarity to the quantitative engagement data and better understand employee morale.

Staff focus groups can be run at multiple sites or via Zoom/MS Teams.

Many staff survey providers do not run focus groups, and just provide an employee survey tool. The Protostar USP is that we are here to help you assess and improve your employee engagement using comprehensive data – not to simply create you an employee survey.

YOUR STAFF SURVEY WILL RUN SMOOTHLY

As one of the leading employee engagement survey providers our employee engagement, satisfaction and wellbeing surveys are completed online and can be accessed from desktop or mobile devices.

While a full analysis of data will be done for you, it is also be provided as a dashboard, to allow you to crunch the data further.

Assistance will be provided with the communications for any company survey for employees, including, kick off sessions, explanatory videos, sample emails etc. Following what we aim to be the best employee engagement survey, we can run face to face or online employee focus groups.

If you have had a bad experience of using one of the leading employee survey tool apps, we can set up your survey so that the responses can continue to flow in and give you regular updates - far more effective than an app.

NEED A WELLBEING SURVEY?

Our standard wellbeing survey has 57 statements covering a wide range of physical and mental health factors. We tailor it to your needs.

Our employee wellbeing survey helps you to create an environment where employee heath and wellbeing issues are proactively tackled. If workplace stress management or mental health is key to your organisation, this survey is a great starting point to improving staff morale.

As with all of our company surveys for employees, we can follow up with focus groups using a representative sample of employees and prepare a thorough report with recommendations.

Incorporates internal data, such as absence and attrition metrics.

Running an employee workplace stress and mental health survey is a proactive step that both allows you to address poor morale and employee mental health and to mitigate any penalty.
