This month, we're excited to bring you a few important updates....

Survey links can be sent for all survey types

Previously you were only able to send Mental Health and DEEI surveys to those who had a login to WeThrive. Within the survey email invite, there was a link to the login page included. Users would have to login and complete the survey within their account.

Now, you can send a Mental Health or DEEI survey to any employee (as long as you have the survey type available).

The new email template will include an individual survey link, in exactly the same way the current Engagement and Pulse surveys do. View the updated email templates in our help files.

Accessibility improvements

We carried out an accessibility audit and made improvements in order to reach AA standard of compliance. This is to ensure that the survey is accessible to groups who may struggle to interact with the survey or suffer from physical pain, for example those with visual impairments, motor disabilities, Carpel Tunnel Syndrome, Arthritis and RSI.

Within the survey itself, these improvements include:

  • Ability to use screen-reader throughout completion of survey.

  • Colour contrast updates to ensure good readability throughout completion of survey.

  • Additional message at top of survey to remind users they do not have to drag every scale - they can also click anywhere on the scale to register an answer.

  • Use keyboard controls to move through the survey.

We've also made some updates to the individual results dashboard viewed within the WeThrive platform. These improvements include:

  • Colour contrast updates

  • Use of keyboard controls to expand/collapse recommendations section.

Updated pulse survey layout

The design of the pulse surveys have now been updated to match the layout of the WeThrive surveys (see below). The overall look and feel of the survey has improved and this is now also compatible with the accessibility improvements explained above.

Surveys switched on/off

In line with our new packages on offer, we are able to switch on and off certain survey types for accounts.

This means that if you purchased a Starter kit, or bought the cheapest package (no logins for managers/employees) you will have access to the Engagement and Pulse surveys only. You may find that the additional survey types (Mental Health & DEEI) are not available but get in contact with us if you are interested in adding these to your subscription.

If you purchased the Essentials/Pro packages or have Manager and/or Employee logins included in your subscription, you'll have all survey types available including Engagement, Pulse, Mental Health and Diversity, Equality, Equity and Inclusion (DEEI).
