What are exit surveys?
Exit surveys gather feedback from employees who are leaving your organisation. Exit surveys gain feedback on:
- Whether or not your employees would recommend your organisation as a great place to work
- Why employees decided to leave your organisation
- What the organisation could have done differently
- What improvements could be made
- Whether your employees felt valued
Why should you issue exit surveys?
Exit surveys provide valuable insights around the key employee engagement drivers at your organisation, and can be used to improve your recruitment and retention strategies
What are the other benefits of exit surveys?
Insights gained from exit surveys help reduce costly turnover, as well as increasing staff engagement and productivity.
Understanding what motivated one person to leave – and acting accordingly – could be the key to making sure someone else stays.
What happens if you don’t issue exit surveys?
If you’re not asking people they they’re leaving your organisation, you’re missing out on crucial information that could help improve retention.
Some reasons can be difficult to hear, but it’s only by understanding where your challenges lie that you can make the necessary changes to address them
