The HR Metrics Survey captures data on key human resources metrics from hospitals throughout California to assist HR leaders in making strategic decisions. The survey focuses on risk management (workers' compensation), acquisition and recruiting, retention and turnover, and compensation and benefits.
These quantitative measures provide a benchmark allowing leaders to know where they stand historically and how they compare externally to peers. Better data foster increased credibility as metrics are a tangible way of demonstrating the value of HR.
All of this is provided to survey participants in a comprehensive Annual Report. Survey participants can optionally order an Individual Facility Report comparing their hospital to all participating hospitals in aggregate.
