Why more and more organizations choose to conduct their employee satisfaction survey themselves
Outsourcing an Employee Satisfaction Survey (ESS) to a specialized research agency has advantages, but also disadvantages such as costs, reduced control and lack of internal engagement. Learn more about these aspects and discover how Learned supports companies in conducting modern employee satisfaction surveys themselves.
The advantages of conducting your employee satisfaction survey yourself
1. High costs of outsourcing an employee satisfaction survey
Outsourcing an employee satisfaction survey (ESS) to a research agency can involve significant costs. The costs of conducting an ESS can vary greatly, depending on various factors including: The size of the organization, The complexity of the survey, The method of data collection and the level of support in interpreting the results. In general, the costs of having an employee satisfaction survey conducted by a professional research agency can range from several thousand to tens of thousands of euros.
2. Less control
When you outsource an ESS, you hand over part of the control over the process. Although the agency has the expertise, they may not understand all the nuances and specific aspects of your organization.
3. Lack of internal engagement
When an ESS is conducted internally, employees can feel more involved in the process and there can be more support for the implementation of the results. Outsourcing can reduce this engagement.
4. Implementation of results
Although a research agency can help you collect and analyze data, the responsibility for implementing changes still lies with the organization. Without a clear plan for how you will use these results, an ESS, whether internal or outsourced, can be less effective.
