HR Questionnaire

A human resources (HR) questionnaire can be used for

several purposes. Key among them is to gauge

whether employees in a specific organization require

further training. Such questionnaires test the

employee’s knowledge on new technologies or

techniques before the same are introduced in an

organization. A different form of HR questionnaire can

be used to gauge employee’s satisfaction with the job

environment, the workload and remuneration among

other things that enhance employee performance.

Based on the data collected in such surveys, the

human resources department is able to formulate policy


interventions that rectify any weaknesses that may

hamper employee performance. Example: Employee
