Questions to consider for your general employee satisfaction survey

Use these questions as suggestions when editing your copy. Keep the ones that fit your purpose and add any details your process needs.

  • How satisfied are you with your working experience this month?
  • Do you have the support needed to do your work?
  • How valued do you feel for your contribution?
  • How manageable is your workload within normal working hours?
  • What one change would improve your working day?

How to use the responses

The live example requires names, department, job title, and a question about stress or anxiety. Do not describe this version as anonymous. For routine workplace feedback, focus on observable workload, resources, and support rather than seeking health details. Remove identifying or sensitive questions that are not needed for your purpose. Explain who can review responses, avoid small-group reports that identify people, and agree how the team will hear about practical next steps. Survey feedback should not substitute for an individual performance assessment.

How to customize and share this template

  1. Explain the purpose, who will see responses, and how the team will use the findings.
  2. Keep questions focused on observable work experiences. Use a consistent scale for similar topics and separate comments about the workplace from individual performance decisions.
  3. Review identifying details and settings before sharing. Agree how results will be summarized and when employees will hear about the next steps.

Ask about the work experience

Edit rating and open-text questions around the subjects your team can review, such as support, workload, communication, or development.

Keep follow-ups relevant

Review the answers thoughtfully

Organize responses in Youform or Google Sheets. Choose who should have access and summarize findings with care for small groups.

Frequently asked questions

Does this employee satisfaction example collect names?
Yes. The published example requires first and last names, department, and job title. If you want a less identifiable survey, edit these fields and review all other settings and comments before making any privacy promise. Removing names alone does not guarantee anonymity in a small team.
Can I customize this form template?
Yes. Choose Use this template to make your own copy in Youform. Edit the questions and colors, review the whole flow, then share a link or embed it on your website. See Youform plans for advanced features.
Can an employee survey be anonymous?
You can design it to avoid collecting names, emails, and other identifying details, then review the relevant Youform settings. Also consider whether team size, job role, or written comments could identify someone before promising anonymity.
What should happen after an employee survey?
Review recurring themes, choose practical changes, and tell employees what you learned and what happens next. Explain what cannot change as well, so the survey does not become a request for feedback with no visible follow-up.
