score (enps) the second way salpulse measures employee engagement is through the employee net promoter score (enps) this is a common method which has its origins in the widely used net promoter score (nps) technique used to gauge customer loyalty salpulse uses the answers of the recommender question (outlined above) to calculate your enps whilst your enps score can be very helpful, we recommend that you also consider a deeper dive into engagement https //docs salple com/salpulse user guide/employee engagement#8xfgv at the individual level to make sure you don't loose critical people or allow disgruntled employees to infect others and damage the culture interpreting enps enps scores range from 100 (all employees are detractors) to +100 (all employees are promoters) whilst the intepretation of your enps score is not an exact science, a guide to interpreting your enps score is given in the following table enps score meaning intepretation +51 to +100 excellent employees are delighted and passionate they are advocates and ambassadors for the company they likely, go above and beyond their duties and inspire others to do the same celebrate this awesome achievement and continue to nurture

safety docid\ ppaqnkpfqnihzf7qngllm sources perceptx , officevibe , elective, aihr, frankli typical enps scores vary by industry according to perceptx , here are some typical enps benchmarks by industry industry benchmark enps telecommunications 27 manufacturing 13 information technology 26 healthcare 6 5 note whilst enps is often measured on an 11 point (0 10) scale, for consistency with the rest of the salpulse survey, we measure employee engagement using our standard 5 point https //en wikipedia org/wiki/likert scale strongly agree, agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, strongly disagree enps is then calculated as the percentage of promoters (an nps term respondents who selected strongly agree ) minus the percentage of detractors (an nps term respondents who selected strongly disagree , disagree or neither agree nor disagree ) https //measuringu com/nps scale change/ has shown that using a 5 point scale for an nps will result in scores that differ from an 11 point scale by only about +/ 4% on average why has my engagement score gone up but enps gone down it is possible that your engagement score has gone up since your last survey and your enps score has gone down, or vice versa this is because the way these two scores are calculated is different in order to make the engagement score consistent with other scores in the survey, it is calculated as the percentage of people who agree or strongly agree enps is calculated in an industry standard way, as the percentage of promoters minus the percentage of detracters (see above for the formula) so if some people who selected strongly agree in the last survey, selected agree , in the current survey, this can result in a drop in the enps without a drop in the engagement score diving deeper into engagement by default, salpulse includes only one engagement question whilst extra questions can be salpulse survey management docid\ veft4kutj29qoj5s53cai if needed, we usually don't recommend this for the purposes of the salpulse survey, it is sufficient to measure the high level overview of engagement that the employee engagement score or enps gives whilst, the process of building and activating a purpose drive what is a culture code? docid\ oduoxjdx5ydzconlazblj will naturally result in higher engagement levels, it can be very helpful to dive deeper into engagement at the individual level to make sure you don't loose critical people or allow disgruntled employees to infect others and damage the culture harrison assessments engagement analytics for this deeper dive into employee engagement at your organisation, we recommend running a harrison assessment , which takes a different approach to engagement than most engagement survey tools in harrison, understanding engagement involves a personal, two way conversation between the employer and the employee and involves mutual obligation the employee ranks factors that are important to them (eg wants development ) and the level of fulfilment they have in those factors, as well as ranking a number of behavioural preferences then, the conversation with an individual employee can be very specific around what important factors are they feeling unfulfilled in and is there anything the organisation can do to remedy that also, harrison measures an individual's supporting traits; ie what they can do to support being fulfilled for example, an employee who wants development opportunities can greatly assist themselves by exhibiting the behavioural traits of being enthusiastic towards goals and desiring self improvement
