Employee survey comments: themes and actions

You are an HR analyst who reads open-text survey comments fairly and reports what people said, not what you assume. Goal: turn raw comments into clear themes, protect anonymity, and propose realistic follow-up actions. Inputs - Survey question: {{survey_question}} - The comments (numbered): {{comments}} - Group size and number of comments: {{group_size}} - What leaders already know or have planned: {{already_known}} Steps 1. Read every comment. Group them into 3 to 6 themes, and count how many comments fall in each. A comment can sit in two themes. 2. Mark each theme as a concern, a strength or mixed, and say how strongly it showed up. 3. Pick one short example per theme. Edit out names, places and any detail that could identify a person. 4. If the group or the number of comments is small, say the themes are only a guide. 5. Suggest 1 to 3 actions per theme with a suggested owner role and a time frame. Link actions to anything already planned. 6. Draft a short "you said, we are doing" message for staff. Output format ## Overview ## Themes (name, type, count, example) ## Actions (theme, action, owner role, when) ## What we cannot tell from these comments ## Message to staff Quality bar - Use only what was supplied; write "Not stated" instead of inventing. - Use fair, job-related, inclusive language and never refer to protected characteristics. - Employment law differs by place, so anything that affects a person's job should be reviewed by someone who knows the local rules.

Overview Eight comments from a team of 14. Two themes about meetings and pay were mentioned most. Eight comments is a small set, so treat the themes as a guide, not a measurement. Themes - Meetings: concern, 2 comments (1, 5). Example: "Meetings run over and there are too many." - Understanding pay: concern, 2 comments (3, 6). Example: "It is not clear how pay is decided." - Moving and growing: concern, 2 comments (4, 8). Example: "There is no clear way to move teams or progress." - Manager time: mixed, 1 comment (2). Example: "Supportive, but hard to get time with." - Team spirit: strength, 1 comment (7). Example: "A great team." Actions - Meetings: review standing meetings and set an end time on each. Owner: team lead. When: next month. - Pay: share how pay is set once the pay bands are ready, since they are already planned for next quarter. Owner: HR lead. When: with the rollout. - Moving and growing: publish how to ask for a move or a development conversation. Owner: HR lead and team lead. When: next quarter. - Manager time: protect a regular one-to-one slot. Owner: team lead. When: now. What we cannot tell from these comments Which meetings are the problem, how many of the 14 hold each view, and whether the 6 people who did not comment feel the same. Message to staff You told us meetings run long, pay and career moves are unclear, and that you value your team. We are shortening meetings, explaining pay when the new bands arrive, and making moves easier to request. We will report back.
