When to use it

Send this survey to people in their last weeks with your team. Honest answers from people who are leaving often surface problems that current staff don’t mention.

Make it your own

  • Explain who reads it. Say in the intro whether answers go to HR, the manager or both.
  • Use your own reasons. Change the reason options to fit your organisation.
  • Consider anonymity. The form doesn’t ask for a name by default. Keep it that way if you want more candid answers.

Put the answers to work

Look for patterns in the reasons and ratings across several departures, not single answers. Share the themes with leadership.

For people still on your team, use the employee survey.
