Join the thousands of organizations that use the Trust Index© survey annually, and benchmark your culture against the global standard of a great workplace. Comprehensive and easy-to-use, the Trust Index© survey enables you to analyze your employees' perceptions of the workplace, compare results to key benchmarks, and receive custom recommendations.

Trust Index© Survey

Our decades of research have revealed that a great workplace is one in which employees trust the people they work for, have pride in what they do, and enjoy the people they work with. The Trust Index© survey measures the employee experience and equips you with accurate, in-depth views of the current state of your workplace culture.

Easy to customize and implement, the Trust Index© allows you to quickly compare internal results between work groups, locations, and other demographics, as well as benchmark yourself against The Globe & Mail list of Best Workplaces in Canada or another group of customized comparators selected by size, sector, country, and more.

After reviewing results from the survey, a Great Place to Work® culture consultant can work with you to:

  • Understand and interpret your results
  • Quantify linkages to your strategy and performance
  • Identify high-impact focus areas for your organization
  • Deliver an on-site presentation of survey findings, key drivers, linkage to business results, high leverage focus areas, and recommendations, drawing on insights from our Best Workplaces
