In clock surveys, questions refer to the queries that are presented to employees when they interact with the clock. After they review one question or more, they must submit a response to validate their action, such as a clock entry or work transfer.
You can create several customized questions that are suited to your business needs in Site Setup > Clock Surveys > Survey Question Setup, in the Questions tab. Further, you can configure declarative statements instead of questions that employees must agree or disagree with. For example, you can configure a question such as the following:
“I agree to follow local health guidelines to the best of my ability during my shift. This includes washing my hands every hour and sanitizing commonly used surfaces.”
Next, you can associate this question with an answer type containing responses of “I agree” and “I disagree.” You can configure a clock survey to accept start shift clock entries where employees select the “I agree” response. If the employees select the “I disagree” option, you can configure the clock to reject the clock entry.
Important: The Survey Question Setup sub-feature also contains system-generated survey questions. Dayforce has provided these system-generated questions as an aid for some common survey scenarios. It’s your responsibility to ensure that any compliance requirements (such as minimum rest) outlined in the question text are valid and applicable to your region. This applies to both customized and system-generated survey questions.
Each question you create must be associated with an answer type that was configured in the Answer Types tab. There is no limit to the number of questions an answer type can be associated with.
After you create survey questions, you can assign them to clock surveys in Site Setup > Clock Surveys > Survey Setup.
