Scanfil Uses Employee Engagement Survey to Improve
April 30, 2024 | ScanfilEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Once a year Scanfil arranges Employee Engagement Survey (EES) in order to get valuable insight from its employees. In EES all employees are invited to share their opinion, bring ideas for improvements, and contribute to making Scanfil a better place to work. The participation rate has been impressive as circulating around 90% for many years, and it shows that employees see EES as a valuable practice and that they appreciate the outcomes of the actions.
The survey results address 12 areas where the main role play satisfaction & motivation, and loyalty. It has been delightful to see that the scores in these areas have been growing for eight consecutive years. The other key areas, just to mention a few, are leadership (from direct manager through local factory management till group management), working conditions, learning & development, equality.
After year 2023 Employee Survey, over 580 improvement activities were developed in all Scanfil units. The main improvement activities were made in working conditions (148 actions), learning and development (108 actions) and co-operation (75 actions). Almost 180 of these activities have already been completed and the next ones are in progress, making Scanfil a better place to work. It is nice to see how powerful employees’ feedback is and how continuous development is happening.
