Survey Visibility Settings - Employee to Employee

Survey Settings control whether an employee can see survey responses recorded about them, and whether respondent names are shown. The choice is employer-wide and applies whenever an employee views those results. Employers, Feature Admins, and managers still see full results and respondent names.

This is separate from Visibility Settings - Performance, which manages viewers for 1:1 threads.

Who can change Survey Settings

Employers, and Feature Admins who administer Performance, can open and change Survey Settings when Performance is enabled for the employer.

To review and change Survey Settings:
  1. Select Performance in the top navigation bar.
  2. Select Settings in the secondary navigation bar.
  3. Select Surveys in the left-side menu. The Survey Settings card opens with the heading Customize survey preferences.
  4. Under By default, when a survey is recorded regarding an Employee, the Employee can, select one radio option:
    • Not view the results (default)
    • View the results but not the respondent's name (respondents appear as Respondent 1, Respondent 2, and so on)
    • View the results and the respondent's name
Selecting an option saves immediately. There is no separate save button.
