If you work in an office, please respond to this for me.

Hi guys,

I'm Vlad, I'm a final year product design student, for my degree project I'm looking at well-being in the workplace/workspace.

Currently, I'm conducting research for the project, and I would be very grateful if you could respond to these few questions.



Surveymonkey link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/8M9VL3R


1.Where do you work?

2. Does your workspace layout encourage social interaction?

3. Do you think, social interaction can improve your productivity and workflow?

4. In your workspace is it hard, to focus, or pay attention?

5.Do you find that your work environment can become stressful?

6. How do you relieve stress?

7. Does your workplace provide anything towards reducing stress? (if Yes, what kind of options do you have?)

8. Does your workspace have good lighting? (natural/or artificial)

9. How much is the wellbeing of employee's considered in your workplace?

10. Do you do anything to improve your wellbeing in your workplace?

Surely better off doing SurveyMonkey or something? Just makes it easier - I'll do it if you have one

Would you believe it, there's a forum for surveys?!

@MarkR Would it be okay to post there, but also keep this post on here? I'm trying to gain as many responses as possible.

I've created a surveymonkey link for those who would prefer to make it less public.

I'll be doing some research myself later this year so I'm happy to help.
But, OP, when you ask in the first question, Where do you work? Do you expect the respondent to reply with a business name & address? I can't be the only person feeling a little uncomfortable at disclosing details from their work to God knows who.

vlad2009

I see your concern. Just the name of company is fine. I'm sorry if anyone finds this an uncomfortable question, and if you don't feel like answering it, just skip it.

survey needs to be more specific, what sort of answers are you expecting to get to:

"How much is the wellbeing of employee's considered in your workplace?"

It's all way too vague, how are you going to analyse the data?

Sorry about that, what I mean is what kinda options does your workplace provide when it comes to employee well-being?

I'm analysing by comparing the data, comparing to my own workspace. Then creating common themes of workplaces, looking for issues, and insights.
I want to see what is provided by different companies. It's all very broad at the moment, as I'm trying to gather as much information as possible.

I've had the opportunity to visit google to see what is done there. (google is very highly ranked in best workplaces)

sorry, I'm just trying to be constructive having been through the pain of designing surveys in the past. The more open ended and broad they are, the less likely people are to respond and the less useful the data that you will get back. Good luck.

I understand and thank you for the feedback. The reason why I left it kind of open, is because I'm trying to gage a better answer than just yes or no.
