Survale announced the launch of the 2026 EmployE Employee Experience Benchmark Research and Award Program, expanding its 15-year legacy from candidate experience to the entire employee journey. The program offers organizations a confidential, comparative, and data-driven approach to measuring and optimizing their employee experience, moving beyond simple surveys to provide actionable intelligence. Unlike programs designed primarily for employer branding badges, the EmployE program provides a comprehensive look at workforce sentiment through Survale's time-tested methodology.
Organizations can benchmark their internal engagement, retention, and satisfaction data against global peers, gaining insights that link employee experience metrics to key business outcomes. Jason Moreau, CEO of Survale, stated that the program represents a natural evolution for the company and industry, applying the same rigor previously dedicated to candidate experience to the complete employee journey. The EmployEs provide HR leaders with validated data needed to build world-class workplaces, improve retention, and strengthen employer brands from within.
The program features comprehensive benchmarking at an accessible price, with organizations surveying employees using Survale's proven guidelines across the entire employee lifecycle. Participants receive detailed reports and one-on-one consultations with employee experience experts to identify strengths and growth opportunities. A key feature is Survale's exclusive Promote capability, which identifies highly satisfied employees and automatically guides them to leave positive reviews on platforms like Glassdoor and Indeed, directly boosting employer brand visibility.
Kevin Grossman, VP of Research at Survale, emphasized that understanding employee experience has become a critical business imperative rather than an optional initiative. The research goes beyond surface-level metrics to measure attitudes on Growth and Development, Engagement, Internal Mobility, and Manager Experience, connecting these factors to organizational performance. The program allows companies to see how their employee experience impacts business results and how they compare to competitors while celebrating successes.
Registration for the 2026 EmployE Employee Experience Benchmark Research and Award Program is currently open, with organizations able to request information through Survale's platform. The program's launch addresses growing recognition that employee experience directly influences retention, productivity, and overall organizational success in competitive talent markets. By providing data-driven insights and benchmarking capabilities, Survale aims to help organizations transform employee experience from an abstract concept to a measurable, improvable business function with direct ties to operational outcomes.
