Simply a new version of employee satisfaction surveys? A true influencer of job performance… and things like retention? The result of things the employer does to ‘grow’ people? Something you can ‘find’ in a candidate? The HR world is paying more and more attention to ‘employee engagement’… A driver for organization-wide surveys and action planning A foundation for guiding investments in organization development work A metric for holding management accountable A norm for comparing organizations

Assessing ‘Will Do’ qualities in candidates helps hire those more likely to engage,” says Dr. Leaetta Hough, Chief Science Officer with HirePayoff™ “We know management-led actions play a role in growing employee engagement, but our research shows a major part of employee engagement resides within the employee. It’s a very simple fact – an organization’s level of employee engagement results from both whom it hires and, then, how it treats them,” concludes Dr. Hough.

But now,” adds Jones, “it’s possible to put a third leg under the stool. Dr. Hough was right – HirePayoff™ employment testing for ‘Can Do / Will Do’ competencies forecasts employee engagement.” Visit www.hirepayoff.com to see the full story onwww.hirepayoff.com ENGAGEMENT IS PREDICTABLE

Note: Each item is answered with a 1-Strongly Disagree, 2-Disagree, 3-Agree, or 4-Strongly Agree response. The overall engagement score is computed by summing the four responses and converting the sum to a ‘percent of maximum’ score.

Results… 10 Disengaged (6%) Never likely to become engaged with the job or organization; management practices have little effect Disenchanted (28%) Possibly open to becoming engaged; management practices will have some influence Enrolled (30%) Joins the organization with a positive level of employee engagement on Day 1; management practices guide its retention Highly Engaged (34%) Joins the organization with a positive level of engagement; retains it, even if workplace events are a challenge

Look at how quickly the organization’s overall workforce engagement could be increased via finding higher levels of engagement. Why spend resources only on growing employee engagement in such a setting?” Jones asks. Visit www.hirepayoff.com to see the full story onwww.hirepayoff.com ‘FINDING’ ENGAGEMENT PAYS!
