Employee Survey Tip 10: Run a Validation Check

Every professional piece of employee survey software offers an automatic validation check. This check is like the spell checker in MS Office, only better – 90% of errors can be reviewed with a single click.

The validation check should directly display suggested fixes for any errors found, or link straight to the relevant solution area of the survey tool.

The validation check for your questionnaire should include the following information:

  • Account check:

    • Is it valid and activated, and is the email address (from which invitations can be sent) correct?
  • Survey check:

    • Access check: is the survey open or closed; if closed, is it ensured that participants can obtain the access codes?
  • Pages and questions check:
    • Do you have any empty pages or questions with no answer options?
    • Do you have any incorrect skip logic or visibility conditions?
    • Have you accidentally created any loops?
  • Language and translation check:

    • Are any translations missing?
