When societal or global events introduce instability and disruption to our natural patterns in work and personal lives, it causes distress. COVID-19 is an example—it introduced a personal impact on our core human needs for safety and security. Without addressing fundamental concerns, organizations cannot run “business as usual.”
What do people need at work to remain happy and successful?
People always need these things at work:
During times of distress, they need more.
People need reassurance that their leaders are prioritizing their safety and wellbeing needs. Employees have a heightened urgency to receive timely, fact-based, and candid communications about what’s happening, why, and the impact on them. They also need the opportunity to express fears and concerns and feel a sense of control over their circumstances.
Change-management, uncertainty, and many other unexpected and overarching factors bring a feeling of unsettlement and the unknown. Consider adding Viva People Science suggested Distress Survey items to a scheduled engagement survey or creating an ad hoc distress survey to learn how your people are feeling and what they need.
When deciding whether to survey, when to do it, and how to position it, consider these options:
Find any of these suggested survey items in the Question Library on your Glint admin dashboard. Search for them by Item Name.
