On site, not at a desk Workers and trades on site rarely sit at a computer. A survey sent only to work inboxes misses many of them. Sites that open and close Each project brings its own site, crew and schedule. A struggling site can hide behind a reassuring average. Busy seasons Work peaks with the season and the deadlines, and crews change from one project to the next. Knowing which team is at risk tells you where to act first. Reach everyone ## Every employee can answer Use one channel or combine them, so people with and without a work email can all take part. ### Email A personal link in their inbox. No password to remember. ### Text message A survey link by SMS, opened on their phone. ### Kiosk or QR code A shared tablet on site, or a printed QR code they scan with their phone. They enter their employee number to answer.

Those with a mobile number on file get a personal link by text message, with no password. Others use a shared tablet on site or scan a printed QR code, then enter their employee number. The kiosk link stays valid between surveys, and we can set up one per site. ### Can crews answer when their schedule allows? Yes. The survey goes out at the local hour you choose and stays open for the whole survey period, not just the day it is sent. People answer when their shift allows, and up to three reminders can follow. ### Does each site and project get its own results? Yes, when your employee data records where people work. Each site, project or office that meets your anonymity minimum gets its own results. You decide who sees what: a superintendent their site, a project manager their project, HR the whole organization. ### Do answers stay confidential in a small crew? Yes. A crew with fewer respondents than your anonymity minimum, 5 by default or the number your organization sets, shows no score and no comments. Its answers still count in the larger groups above it, such as the site or the region. ### How do results reach superintendents and project managers? Each manager you give access to gets a dashboard for their teams: results, the questions to work on first with advice, focus groups and action plans. Access can follow your org chart, and you can adjust it. Managers can also get a monthly team report by email. ### Does Sparkbay connect to our HR system? Yes. Sparkbay syncs your employee data every day through a unified connector to [the HR systems on our integrations page](https://sparkbay.com/en/hris-integrations), such as Workday, ADP and SAP SuccessFactors, or directly with BambooHR. You can also import a CSV file. #### What would your site crews tell you if you asked? [Schedule a demo](https://sparkbay.com/en/request-demo)
