As an administrator, you can review survey results in the Engagement feature. Dayforce shows a list of any survey results to which you have access. The list includes a summary of key information about the survey, including its status and participation level. If the survey is configured to measure the Engagement Index and includes the associated Engagement Index category, summary information on the engagement index and engagement levels are also displayed.
Note: This information is available to administrators as the surveys are run. This information will only appear to Managers once the Administrator publishes results to them. This could happen while the survey is running or after the survey is closed.
The Participation percentage represents the number of respondents out of the total number of survey invitations sent to your team.
The Engagement Index is a question category that includes several questions that provide an indicator of overall employee engagement. The value represents the aggregated percentage of favorable responses to these questions from respondents. Favorable responses are Strongly Agree and Agree on the five point scale.
The Engagement Levels are calculated based on five questions in the survey that are included as part of the Engagement Index category. You can hover over the percentage amounts to see the actual count of respondents. The percentages represent the number of respondents that responded to these five questions as described below:
- Engaged: Answered at least 80% of questions in the Engagement Index with favorable responses.
- Under-Engaged: Answered at least 60% of questions in the Engagement Index with neutral or favorable responses.
- Disengaged: Didn’t meet either of the requirements above.
