Every organisation has different priorities, and sometimes a more tailored approach is needed to understand how people are experiencing work.

The BPTW™ Custom Survey gives you the flexibility to gather employee feedback on the topics that matter most to your organisation.

Surveys can be designed using selected BPTW™ questions, your own questions or a combination of both, allowing you to focus on specific workplace priorities, initiatives or areas of change.

Whether you’re looking for a shorter, focused check-in or a more comprehensive survey designed around your goals, this option helps you gather relevant feedback to inform decisions and track progress over time.

What you can tailor

• Survey Questions: Use selected BPTW™ questions, your own questions or a combination of both.
• Survey Length: Choose a shorter, focused check-in or a more comprehensive survey.
• Survey Focus: Explore specific topics such as leadership, wellbeing, communication, workplace change or employee engagement.
• Participation: Gather feedback from your entire organisation or selected teams, departments or employee groups.
• Survey Frequency: Run a one-off survey or repeat it over time to understand change and track progress.
• Custom Organisation Branding: The option to customise the survey with your organisation’s branding.

Survey timing and flexibility

The BPTW™ Custom Survey is available year-round and can be designed around your organisation’s specific objectives and reporting needs.

It’s particularly valuable for organisations wanting to understand the impact of change programmes, leadership initiatives, workplace improvements or other areas where employee feedback can help guide decisions.

A minimum of 60% employee participation is required for detailed reporting.

Staying connected to how people experience work helps organisations understand what’s changing, recognise emerging priorities and assess the impact of workplace initiatives.

The BPTW™ Pulse Survey combines our Employee Experience Survey and comparisons against previous survey results with the flexibility to include up to three additional questions tailored to your organisation.

This provides a comprehensive view of employee experience, alongside more specific feedback on the topics, initiatives or challenges that matter most to your workplace.

Available year-round, the BPTW™ Pulse Survey can be used as a standalone survey or repeated throughout the year to monitor employee experience, track progress and support continuous improvement.

• Custom Organisation Branding: The option to customise the survey with your organisation’s branding.
• Participation: Gather feedback from your entire organisation or filter to selected teams, departments or employee groups using custom demographic questions.

This remains available until the current season’s national benchmark data is released in November, giving you a final comparison against the latest BPTW™ season.
