The beginning of the year is, for many, a time to reassess professional decisions – from satisfaction with their current job to considering possible changes. In order to provide employees with a clearer insight into their own situation, the company Luppa has developed a tool for measuring satisfaction and engagement in the workplace. This is the Personal Luppa questionnaire for researching and analysing employee satisfaction and engagement, which is available for individual use free of charge.
Although most employees have a clear sense of their own satisfaction with their job and employer, this impression often remains at the level of a general feeling. What this type of questionnaire enables is a more detailed analysis of satisfaction across specific areas of work, known as dimensions.
Overall job satisfaction is shaped by a range of different factors, which within the questionnaire are grouped into 12 dimensions: change and innovation, engagement, collaboration, work–life balance, communication, working conditions, learning and development, vision and purpose, autonomy, leadership, work organisation, and loyalty. The tool provides insight into the level of satisfaction for each of these dimensions on a scale from 0 to 5.
Particular value of this approach lies in the ability to compare personal satisfaction results with the average of the market in which the employee operates, as well as with the average of the industry in which they work. Such comparisons allow employees to view their work experience in a broader context, beyond individual impressions.
The questionnaire consists of approximately one hundred questions and takes around 15 minutes to complete, using a scale ranging from complete disagreement to complete agreement. After completion, participants receive an analysis of satisfaction across the 12 dimensions of work, including comparisons with market and industry averages, as well as an assessment of engagement levels.
The resulting data can serve as a basis for making informed and thoughtful decisions about further career development. Comparing personal results with industry averages makes it possible to distinguish between issues related to a specific workplace and those that are more broadly present within the industry itself.
While most employees have a good sense of how satisfied they are with their job, such impressions rarely come with a clear framework for comparison. The structure and depth of data provided by this type of analysis make it possible to view job satisfaction in a broader market and industry context, which can be useful when making important professional decisions.
Insight into job satisfaction in a broader market context can be obtained through the Personal Luppa questionnaire, which is available to complete anonymously and free of charge.
