Employee Engagement and Satisfaction Survey

The MRS Employee Engagement and Satisfaction Survey was developed as part of MRS’ on-going People and Talent initiative. 

The aim of the Survey is to help businesses understand their individual workforces and to be able to benchmark their performance with other similar business across the sector. 

The MRS Employee Engagement & Satisfaction Survey has been designed to cover the key elements of employee engagement including culture, management, professional development and progression, inclusion & diversity and remuneration.  The survey has been designed by MRS using best practice from employee research in consultation with research experts in this field. 

The benefits of participating in the MRS Employee Engagement & Satisfaction Survey include:

• Providing participating organisations an opportunity to benchmark their performance to the sector’s, helping businesses to identify what they are doing well, and also identify areas of improvement.
• Measuring the key metrics for businesses in the research sector.
• Helping organisations monitor their performance and highlight priorities for improvement that will have real impact on employee engagement and motivation.    
• Releasing staff time and resource from undertaking their own in-house staff surveys.
• Saving costs by participating in the cost-effective MRS survey rather than creating in-house surveys.
• Providing evidence for award recognition, e.g., the MRS Research Live Best Place to Work award.

The 2024 Survey is now closed. The data collection for the 2025 survey is planned to take place in March/April 2025 (deadline tbc), with individual corporate results due to be issued in late May 2025.
