Before you take part
Your questions answered
How many responses do we need?
Your agency needs at least six valid responses before its results can be published. This reporting threshold helps protect employee anonymity.
Can we buy just one round?
Yes. Each £1,500 + VAT purchase covers one agency report from one scheduled survey round.
Do we lose access if we don’t buy the next round?
No. You retain access to purchased reports. Future rounds are available through a new purchase or qualifying Alliance membership.
Will we see other agencies’ results?
You see your own agency’s results and pooled benchmarks, not another agency’s individual report.
When will our results be available?
Results become available after the survey round closes and the Alliance publishes the findings. We will confirm the relevant dates when your agency signs up.
