6 Things to Know About Workday Peakon Employee Voice

At some point in your career, you’ve sent out a survey from your company. It’s 75 questions long and they are housed in a system you don’t usually use, like SurveyMonkey or a Google form. The format is bland, uninspiring, and you may not feel that you are receiving honest answers because fears around confidentiality.

We know employee feedback and engagement is important. So how do you get employees to not only participate in your company surveys, but give honest, thorough answers to your questions?

Workday Peakon aims to help you accomplish just that. It increases engagement and gives end-users the confidence to provide honest feedback that can provide real impact to you and your organization.

1. Talk about Key Insights, and Start a Dialogue

Peakon is Workday’s person-first experience, compared to the industry’s traditional survey-first approach.

Every question in Peakon invites your employees to anonymously start a discussion and confidently be transparent with their responses.

When a comment is left, you can start a conversation with the employee to understand key insights previously left untapped.

Employees can respond back, then you can open up conversations and act on them.

The employee knows who in leadership or HR they are talking to – but the employee will always remain anonymous.

2. Predicting Attrition Before It Happens

Peakon allows you to predict employee sentiment based on your data and act on it before it’s too late. Peakon determines attrition on an employee, segment, and company basis and allows you to measure it against its counterparts.

Through 1 million+ data points, you can see that active employees tend to show 20% higher scores than their departed counterparts. You can also compare data points (organizations, teams, locations, levels, and so much more) to determine how strong your attrition risks are within each of these segments, and even compare them to one another!

4. Meet Employees How They Work

The ways you can engage is as diverse as your employees themselves, and making these discussions accessible is as critical as opening up these conversations. Not only can you email employees unique links to access, Peakon allows you to SMS, and send messages directly to Microsoft Teams and Slack to empower your workers to quickly action on these discussions.

You’ve gotten your survey results back and executive leadership is anxious for you to present your findings. With other systems, it could take hours to segment, filter, and collate the survey data.

Is your team only concerned with a subset of your employee population? Not an issue. Segmenting these presentations is just as simple as making one for your entire organization!
