Tool 7

Exit Survey Template

Purpose

The purpose of this tool is to identify the reasons for employee resignation, including those prompted by pregnancy and/or childcare responsibilities. Though the survey is not gender-specific, the information generated by the tool will be useful to help organizations detect whether there are differences in the reasons male and female employees resign and provide invaluable insights into how employee attrition can be reduced.

Implementation

The HR Department will be responsible for the implementation of this tool in accordance with the existing administration practices at the organization. HR should periodically share the data generated from this tool with other relevant departments, task groups and committees.

The Survey itself has been designed to be voluntarily and anonymously filled out by employees who resign and may not apply to employees who have retired or been terminated. Every opportunity should be utilized to communicate to the resigning employees that they will not be personally identifiable from their responses and any data analysis will only happen at the aggregate level.
