Hi Ishita,
The answer is no..employee satisfaction survey is just one of the indicators of measures of well of employees..if it is conducted in a frank & anonymous basis then it shows the areas of concern..other wise its just remains as a statistics on paper with no value..Most of us have the tendency to get caught up with paper tiger & sit behind PCs..
True Indicators?..well do they smile when they come to office..infact this what i observe the people outside the Churchgate station..as how many of them are eager to goto office? It's shows up on their facial expression..
Are they eager to take more work/assignments? ..
Need to take OD exercises & look holistically at their work performances & processes..

Hi Ishita, Employee satisfaction survey never gives the holistic picture of employee well being. you needto supplement that with few OD exercises. Ekta

hi ishita,
dont be under the impression that satisfaction surveys are a good indicators of employee well being..in papar they may put any no.of tick marks, but not what is there in their mind..
for that u have to go to them personally, if possible to where they are sitting and have a genuine talk..and pls note that such dialogues do not become a one time affair, after which u forget about the whole episode.let that be a continuous dialogue, wherein u keep a tab on the improvements and developments in his work life..
For each employee to get such of personal attention, we may require to the increase the workforce in HR..but sadly many cos think vice versa.

true Employee satisfaction is only a component of a bigger picture. As an HR consultant we use employee satisfaction feedback tools to get an impression of certain trends from which you can further home in on tangible areas of concern. Ultimately I always suggest a combination of the two. Something used for measurement, i.e.. http://<a href="http://www.visionmet...etrics.net</a> combined with a discussion based (either 1-1 or group level) sessions on the measured results. That way you get an earnest picture you can base certain strategies on. Hope this helps.

It’s not the ultimate measure, just one measure amongst many. Some others are:
-employee retention
-employee absenteeism
-level of union action; strikes, lockouts, go-slows
-number of employee grievances/complaints
-number of OH&S incidents/accidents
-productivity rates
-error rates
-number of customer complaints
Perhaps the most telling indicator is face-to-face conversation – asking employees about the quality of their working life. This will give invaluable qualitative information that cannot be gleaned from numerical indicators.
Just on closing, I’m much more partial to evaluating levels of engagement, as opposed to levels of satisfaction. An employee can be quite satisfied working for an employer, but highly disengaged with the work.
