Overview


During a period of unprecedented disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Transport for NSW (Transport) turned to Qualtrics to help it deliver a modern employee experience tailored to meet evolving expectations.

Through the positive results achieved, Transport is now scaling and expanding its use of the Qualtrics Experience Management Platform™.

How Transport is closing the experience gap


Getting ahead of expectations

Transport is using Qualtrics EmployeeXM to expand the volume of employee feedback it is collecting, and unlock actionable insights helping improve the experiences delivered. Employees complete regular Pulse Check surveys  while feedback is also collected at key moments in the employee lifecycle, such as onboarding and exit. Combined with the whole-of-NSW government annual engagement survey (People Matter Employee Survey), this comprehensive employee listening program allows Transport to constantly design and improve its employee experience based on current needs and challenges.

Intelligent listening & action at scale

Using Qualtrics, Transport can autonomously make changes to listening programs at scale and in real-time, allowing the department to continually tailor and update pulse checks based on evolving circumstances. Feedback can also be seamlessly collected across devices – a key requirement considering the diverse and remote workforce. Qualitative and quantitative feedback is integrated on a single platform and presented to People and Culture, leaders and people managers in real-time through easy-to-understand, visual dashboards to take action on what matters most to employees.

Optimising existing investments & resources

Insights from Transport’s employee listening program are integrated with the NSW Government’s annual employee engagement survey. This provides Transport with a complete, in-depth view of its employee experience to drive meaningful change. EmployeeXM is also being used to identify ways to improve leader effectiveness, with insights guiding the support and services made available to people managers.
