« Go Back Sample Wellness Individual Interest Survey

Large businesses may prefer to do this, or similar, surveys by computer to reduce data entry and analysis time. Businesses with few employees can easily compile the information by hand.
This short survey is designed to get a feel for where employee interests lie, while at the same time giving employees a chance to better understand the concept of a wellness program. All responses will be kept anonymous.

Select one number for each question:

4 = Very likely
3 = Somewhat likely
2 = Not very likely
1 = Not at all likely
