Employee Opinion Surveys
Surveys can be a powerful tool in the assessment of employee opinions on a multitude of topics. Some include satisfaction with compensation and benefits, training, leadership, and job opportunities. Using the survey results to adjust company policies and programs can decrease employee attrition.

Broadlawns Medical Center makes thoughtful use of this tool.

Bilingual Contacts
Communication is key to building a diverse employee and customer base. By having bilingual contact persons in some departments (such as in the reception area or human resources department), a company creates a “warm welcome” for employees and visitors for whom English is not the primary language.

Companies that use this idea including EMCO, and Employee & Family Resources.
