Annual Benefits Satisfaction Survey
An annual benefits satisfaction survey measures employee satisfaction with their benefits package and identifies gaps between what employees value and what is offered. Key survey questions include: overall satisfaction with benefits, satisfaction with specific benefit categories, awareness of available benefits, and suggestions for improvement.
Focus Groups
Focus groups provide qualitative insight into employee benefits preferences that surveys cannot capture. A focus group of 8–12 employees can reveal the specific concerns, misconceptions, and preferences that are driving benefits dissatisfaction — and provide actionable guidance for plan design improvements.

IQ Insight
The most powerful thing you can do with employee feedback is communicate how it influenced your plan design decisions. "Based on your feedback, we added telemental health coverage with $0 cost-sharing" is a powerful message that demonstrates you are listening and responding. Employees who see their feedback reflected in plan design are significantly more satisfied with their benefits.
