Survey example: Employee survey about workplace safety

This is an example of an AI survey about workplace safety for employees—see and try the example.

Most teams struggle to create effective employee workplace safety surveys that feel engaging and collect deeper insights, not just surface-level answers.

At Specific, we focus on making employee feedback meaningful and actionable with our conversational survey tools, built on proven research methods and AI expertise.

What is a conversational survey and why AI makes it better for employees

Employee workplace safety surveys often fall flat—response rates are low, and answers lack necessary context. People skip questions, abandon the survey, or give generic replies, which makes it tough to understand what's really going on.

AI survey generators change this by turning the traditional form into a natural conversation. Instead of presenting a static list of questions, the survey adapts to each employee’s responses in real time, just like a thoughtful interviewer.

Why use AI for employee surveys? AI-powered surveys excel where form-based ones can't. Employees get questions tailored to their experiences, boosting engagement and data quality. In fact, AI-driven surveys achieve completion rates between 70% and 90%—a massive improvement over traditional surveys, which see just 10% to 30% completion rates [1]. And because AI personalizes the experience with adaptive follow-ups, abandonment rates drop by half [2]. That translates directly into richer data and clearer insights for workplace safety programs.

Here's a quick look at how these approaches stack up:

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

Most employee surveys stop at the first answer. But what if that answer is too vague, or only touches on the real issue? With Specific’s AI, you get automatic follow-up questions tailored to each reply, right in the moment. It’s like having a professional interviewer on hand, gathering full context and making it feel natural—even fun—for employees to share what matters.

Why does this matter? Manual follow-ups—like sending additional emails for clarity—are tedious and rarely yield great insights. AI handles this instantly, keeping the conversation flowing and capturing the real story.

• Employee: “Some areas feel unsafe during night shifts.”

• AI follow-up: “Can you tell us more about what makes those areas feel unsafe at night?”

• Employee: “Training could be better.”

• AI follow-up: “What specific aspects of the training would you like to see improved?”

Without these follow-ups, you’re left guessing. If you want to experience this, try generating a survey and see how specific and actionable your feedback becomes. (Or use the AI survey generator for other custom surveys.)

With AI follow-ups, your survey isn’t just a form—it’s a real conversation. See more about this in our feature overview.

Delivery options: landing page and in-product surveys

You can share your employee workplace safety survey in whichever way fits your organization best:

• Sharable landing page surveys: Send a unique link to all employees, perfect for internal polls or distributed teams—no install needed. Great for company-wide safety campaigns or onboarding new hires.

• In-product surveys: Launch the survey directly inside your corporate portal, HR software, or internal app. Capture immediate feedback—right when employees log in to report incidents or complete safety training.

For workplace safety, landing page surveys are ideal for large-scale outreach, while in-product surveys excel for timely, event-based feedback straight from the work environment.
