We measure trust. The true driver of culture, performance and employee engagement.

The Trust Index™ Survey by Great Place To Work® is the only globally recognized employee survey. It's the one benchmark the world's best workplaces use to build high-trust, high-performance cultures, backed by 30+ years of research.

THE ROOT CAUSE OF TURNOVER

Most employee surveys measure the wrong thing.

Plenty of engagement surveys measure employee sentiment. The Trust Index™ measures the structures behind what drives that sentiment — credibility, respect, fairness, pride, and camaraderie — so you know exactly where to focus.

Employee Engagement Survey FAQs

Is the Great Place To Work survey anonymous?

Yes. We take our ethical obligation to survey takers very seriously. Employees can rest assured that their participation is completely confidential and voluntary. Survey responses come directly to Great Place To Work. Employers cannot see who has or who has not completed the survey while the survey is live. We remove unique identifiers once the survey closes. For employers, company participation in the Certification program and the survey results are completely confidential. We do not publish the details of any organisations who do not achieve Certification or Best Workplaces recognition.

Yes! Our Trust Index™ survey is available in over 50 languages, and they’re all available for you to use at no additional cost.

You don’t have to wait for annual list recognition to begin your journey towards creating a better workplace for all! Some organisations partner with us on an annual basis, supplementing main measures with additional pulse surveys throughout the year as a temperature check on their actions. Other clients make frequent pulse checks on a quarterly or even monthly basis. Ultimately, we believe that measures should only be taken at a frequency where you feel important change may happen.
Employees answer 14 demographic questions and respond to 60 statements across a five-point consistency scale as well as two open-ended questions. Employees generally take 10 to 20 minutes to complete the survey.
You can add custom questions at some subscription tiers. While our core Trust Index statements must remain unedited in order to consider you for Great Place To Work Certification and our awards, we offer different subscription tiers that allow you to add your own open-ended questions, demographic questions, and survey statements. Any additional survey statements which are not required for a specific Best Workplaces List will not be evaluated as part of our awards, so you can collect the feedback you find most relevant to your business without it impacting your Certification result.
Yes. Once your survey is closed, you’ll immediately get (at minimum) an overview of your scores so you can see how your employee experience measures against our key evaluation areas, and how you stack up against our Best Workplaces benchmarks.

Yes. Our Trust Index is extremely user-friendly and compatible across all devices (laptop/pc, tablet, and mobile).

You can’t improve your culture, if you don’t understand it.
