Annual survey and pulse on one platform

Once a year, the in-depth employee survey with scientifically validated questions gives you the full picture. Short pulse surveys in between show whether your measures are reaching day-to-day operations. That is how Basler Verkehrs-Betriebe work, too: they added a half-yearly pulse to their large surveys.

  • Start with the validated engagement survey based on the JD-R model, developed with Freie Universität Berlin

  • Measure workplace climate, demands, engagement and intention to stay, and put your scores in context with external benchmarks

  • Compare every metric across all surveys and by area

Follow up without breaking anonymity

If a comment is unclear, HR or the manager can follow up directly in the anonymous chat. The employee replies, and their name stays hidden. A result becomes a conversation with the team.

  • Start the dialogue directly from the chart

  • Employees can translate messages into their own language

  • Record agreed next steps as initiatives with owners and deadlines

Employee representation & data protection

What your works council or staff council checks

Whether you are a public transit operator or a private logistics company: employee representatives usually have a say in a digital survey. These three points usually decide how quickly you reach an agreement.

  • Anonymity the system enforces

    Results only appear once a group reaches a minimum number of responses. Open-text answers have their own threshold.

  • Mask names in open-text answers

    The platform can automatically mask names, email addresses and phone numbers in open-text answers.

  • Visibility by role

    You decide centrally, through roles and permissions, who can see which results. You can limit managers' view to their own area.

We don't want to use the tool just as a measuring instrument, but truly as a leadership tool.

Frequently asked questions

What transport and logistics companies want to know before their first survey

  • How do we reach drivers without a company email?

    Through a QR code or link, for example on a poster at the depot, or through a personal access code, for example printed on the payslip. They don't need a company email address. Employees with a work phone and their own email address can use the Engage App. Participation by code is included from the Business package. You can find all options on our feedback channels page.

  • Can we analyze results by depot and role?

    Yes. When employees take part with a personal access code or by email, their responses are linked to attributes from your HR system, such as depot, area or role. The platform only shows results for groups that reach the minimum number of responses. With a publicly posted QR code, responses are not linked to attributes, because no personal reference is collected. To compare depots, use personal access codes.

  • What does our works council or staff council need?

    Before the first digital survey, employers and employee representatives usually sign an agreement. The review typically focuses on the anonymity threshold, how open-text answers are handled and the data processing agreement. You can read how Honestly addresses these points on our security and data protection page.

  • How often should we run surveys?

    A proven approach is an in-depth annual employee survey for the full picture, with short pulse surveys of 5 to 20 questions in between. Both run on the same platform, so you can compare the results directly.

  • Which languages can the survey run in?

    More than 40 languages. The platform translates the questionnaire automatically, and you can adjust every translation in the editor. The AI text analysis evaluates open-text answers across languages.

  • How much does Honestly cost?

    The price depends on the number of employees and the package, and is billed annually. You can see what each package includes on our pricing page. Anonymous chat, multilingual surveys and masking of personal data are included in Enterprise and available as an add-on in Business.
