Introduction to Employee Satisfaction and Employee Wellbeing

Purpose: To help you understand the difference between Employee Wellbeing and Employee Satisfaction in BambooHR and how you can use both to interpret the entire employee experience.  


How do Employee Satisfaction and Employee Wellbeing work together?

BambooHR has designed two survey tools that will help you stay connected to your employees. The two surveys work together to paint a full picture of the employee experience at your company. While Employee Satisfaction with eNPS uses the Net Promoter Score concept to measure employee loyalty, Employee Wellbeing is your deep dive into the reasons behind your eNPS score.

Think about it this way, Employee Wellbeing should be a continuous conversation with your employees about how they are doing as an individual working for your company, while Employee Satisfaction is a less frequent check-in to see how your company’s organizational health is doing as a whole. Employee Satisfaction and Employee Wellbeing are separate survey features within BambooHR, but when used together, they can provide an overall, data-driven picture of the entire employee experience at your company. And the best part is that each survey literally takes minutes for your employees to complete. 

It is important to note that both surveys are anonymous and administered via email. The employee will click on a button to begin the surveys, which will then take them to a separate page where the user's demographic information is tied to the URL, but the user will remain anonymous. These answers will transfer to insightful and easy-to-use reports, and then it is up to you to decide what to do with the data.
