Pay satisfaction survey questions

Pay is rarely the only reason people leave, but pay that feels unfair often is. These questions separate the amount from the process: whether pay feels fair, whether people understand how it's decided and how pay rises work, and how it compares with what they could earn elsewhere.

We've ticked a short starter set. Change it to suit you.

Tips for a better pay satisfaction survey

  • Keep it anonymous and don't ask for job titles on small teams; pay answers are the easiest to trace back.
  • Read “I understand how my pay is decided” next to “I'm paid fairly”. Low understanding often explains low fairness.
  • Only run it if you're ready to explain how pay works afterwards. Asking and then saying nothing makes things worse.
