Modify text in an existing question: For example, changing "My place of work is ..." to "The building where I work is ..."

$35 per question

Modify text in existing response values: The response values are the possible answers that employees can check. You may like the question, but feel that different response values should be used.

$45 per question

Adding additional response values to an existing radio question: As an example, an existing question might have 3 response values: Yes, No, and Don't Know. You might want to change it to 5: Definitely, Probably, Not sure, Probably not, and Definitely not.

$60 per question

Adding additional response options to an existing checkbox question: Checkbox questions are those where employees can check multiple answers. For example, to the question "What is the source of the danger on your job?", there are about 20 possible answers. You might want to add some more.

Adding a new radio question: Radio questions are those to which employees can select only one answer, as in this example:

$95 per question

Adding a new checkbox question: These are multiple-response questions, as in the following example:

Adding a text box to an "Other" response value: You will notice in the demo survey that there are a few questions, as in the example below, where "Other" is one of the response options, yet there is no space for employees to type an answer. This was done to help keep costs down. If it is important to you, we can add a text box where employees can type "other" answers. The cost is based on company size.

($120 minimum/$500 maximum)

Adding an "Open-end" question: Open-end questions are those where employees can type a more substantial answer, such as their reasons for something or opinions about something. The value of open-end questions is that the resulting data is based entirely on what employees say, not as a response to options we provided. An example of an open-end question might be: "What suggestions do you have for improving communication in your department?", or, "Is there anything you would like to tell us that wasn't included in the survey?"

Open-end questins are time-consuming to process. To keep costs down they have not been included in the basic survey. However, they can provide valuable information, and can be added.

Additional analysis banner & tables: This is a set of tables that show results for all questions by an analysis banner. As indicated above, one banner table set is included in the $1,200 price. This option is for additional data runs. There are many possible analysis banners: Results by ...

• Employee age group,
• Men versus Women,
• Location or Branch,
• Department,
• Staffing Level,
• Full-Time or Part-Time,
• Length of Employment,
• Work Shifts,
• Union versus Non-Union, and
• Salaried versus Hourly

are the most common choices, but any question can be used to segment employees into groups. A banner has a maximum of 10 banner points, so it is possible to fit more than one of the above options onto a single banner. For example, if you have three locations, the banner could include "Location" (3 pts.), Length of Employment (7pts.) in the same banner.

Organizations with few employees will be limited in their banner choices. There are many more options open to large employers. It is even possible (for an additional fee) to conduct data runs within employee groups; e.g., Results by work shift for individual branch locations. However, you should be aware that we will not perform any analysis that has the potential of identifying individual employees.

$400 per banner

Individual Cross-tab: A "cross-tab" is the result for a single question analyzed by the response groups of another single question. For example, you might want to know the reasons people are looking for another job by how serious they are about job hunting (actually job hunting vs thinking about it).

Cross-tabs allow you to drill down into the data. Any question in the survey can be crossed with any other. Often, the need for a cross-tab isn't apparent until some time after the initial analysis. This isn't a problem. We'll keep the data in the computer for a couple of months. Just call and tell us what you need.

$50 each

Additional charts: The basic package includes charts that show overall or average results for the total employee population. We can prepare additional charts depicting any analysis performed. For example, you might want charts that show how certain questions were answered by employees from each department.

Charts are provided in PDF format. A different format may increase the cost.

Analysis & written report: Instead of figuring out which additional banners and cross-tabs to run you can have us do it for you and prepare a written report. Or, we can write a report based on the banners you selected. The extent of the analysis and reporting depends a great deal of the size of your organization and the number of departments and locations.
