Writing open-ended questions as part of an employee engagement questionnaire

This resource offers suggestions on free text questions which can be included within employee engagement questionnaires 

It is aimed at helping those setting up an engagement survey to select some open-ended questions to provide qualitative feedback and views alongside the rated questions.  

Rated questions in an engagement survey provide valuable quantitative data which enable you to track performance and engagement over time but it is also useful to offer employees the opportunity to respond to open questions, enabling them to have their say and to share their views in a less structured format.

This guide provides some suggestions and options for you to consider adding to your survey.
