EMPLOYEE DETACHMENT INVENTORY (EDI)

The EDI is an online Survey that measures the strength of emotional detachment a departing employee has to an organisation by assessing the relative “Push” and “Pull” forces leading to their decision to leave.  The EDI Feedback Report provides HR professionals with quantitative data that can be used as a stand-alone exit measure or can be used to support a meaningful and targeted exit interview for both the interviewer (HR) and interviewee (the departing employee).

The Process

Departing employees complete the Employee Detachment Inventory Survey which contains 64 elements (asking employees to rate their level of “satisfaction” and “importance”) during their notice period.  The Survey takes approximately 15 minutes to complete and within seconds of completion, the shcBOND platform will generate an EDI Feedback Report that is emailed directly to the HRBP.

Key Benefits of the EDI:

  • Collect accurate quantitative and qualitative data using Detachment scores showing Push and Pull forces

  • Provides valuable insights for HR to conduct targeted and meaningful exit interviews focusing on the “push forces” of the departing employee

  • Removes the possibility of the employee’s feedback being lost in translation

  • Powerful trend reporting is also available at demographic level including by manager, department, location, job family, job title and more

  • Supports the development of targeted strategies at the organisational level to help reduce the risk of unwanted attrition and identify opportunities to increase effort and performance across a workforce
