The Happiness
Index
survey

Most organisations can only measure engagement. Few can tell you why their people feel the way they do, or what to do about it. The Happiness Index survey changes that. 

The only survey that measures both happiness and engagement

  • Most engagement surveys tell you what’s happening. The Happiness Index survey tells you why. And what it means for your business.
  • Built on neuroscience and 24 questions across 8 major drivers of happiness and engagement, it gives you a complete picture of how your people actually think and feel. Not just a score. A strategy.
  • Alongside these, 6 open questions capture intent to stay, productivity and rewards and benefits. They also include the eNPS question, so you get advocacy data alongside cultural insight.
  • Every question earns its place. The survey length has been carefully optimised to capture the depth of insight your leadership team needs while keeping completion rates as high as possible. Because data is only useful if your people actually participate.
  • Each question asks for a score between 1 and 10 alongside an open comments box, giving you both quantitative data and the human stories behind it. You see the numbers and the nuance. The sentiment and the strategy.

Benchmark against the world. Know exactly where you stand.

Every result from The Happiness Index survey is benchmarked against The Global Workplace Happiness Report,  the world’s most comprehensive study into workplace happiness and engagement, built on 1.9 million global data points across 115 countries.

That means you don’t just see how your people think and feel. You see how that compares against organisations worldwide, in your sector, at your size. Where you’re ahead. Where you’re losing ground. And exactly where to focus for the greatest commercial impact.

No other survey gives you this context. Because no other platform has this data.
