Work environment

Monitoring conditions within companies

A company that listens to its employees

Tensions on the job market, the financial market crisis and a drop in buying power are all factors that could cause the work environment within companies to deteriorate. As such, listening to employees by regularly measuring their opinions emerges as an indispensable means of prevention and workplace monitoring tool for business leaders.

To this end, BVA Opinion offers you a full range of solutions and skills to address your in-house concerns.


Our work environment expertise is essentially focused on three fields of action.

Employee surveys

These surveys regularly measure employees' opinions and expectations vis-à-vis their work conditions, managers, information sharing and buy-in to the company's strategy.
Such a tool makes it possible to closely track the state of mind of employees and anticipate any signs of unrest in the workplace.

Internal satisfaction surveys

To gain knowledge of employees' perception and needs with regard to a specific question:

• Internal communication
• Creation of a business plan
• Perception of diversity
• Age management
• Acceptance of company values
• ...

These specific ad hoc surveys make it possible to evaluate how employees perceive the company's management policies and practices.

National and international benchmarks

Benchmarking lets you compare your company's results to standards established for a common perimeter (country of operation, business sector, employee skills level, etc.).

Job placement and training assessment

For several years BVA Opinion has been developing specialized skills in job placement and the assessment of professional training.

Working in conjunction with numerous regional councils and professional federations, we have developed specific methodologies and tracking tools (ongoing surveys, regular results monitoring, etc.) to provide precise feedback on the experiences of beneficiaries and provide an operational assessment of the impact of ongoing training or some life event on various career paths.
BVA makes available to its customers a range of survey processes and innovative tools that are compatible with their issues.
