Employee Interest Surveys

A valuable tool for wellness committees! Surveys introduce employees to worksite wellness, solicite their involvement and approval, and overall play a big role in helping to launch a successful wellness program.

Use our sample surveys as a starting point for polling your co-workers. Adapt and revise the questions to best fit your needs. 
Sample survey 1
   |   Sample survey 2   |   Sample survey 3 (New)


Once you get your survey questions finalized and survey dates set, you'll need to promote the survey well enough to assure a good response. (Consider these guidelines for response rates: Surveys at worksites with between 40 and 100 employees should have at least 25 responses and aim for 50-75% of all employees. At sites with 100-200 employees aim for 35-50% as your minimum.)
