Benchmarks

The Perceptyx Benchmark Database is composed of response data from participating customer organizations administering projects over a three-year period for each database iteration. As of our Bench24 release, the Benchmark Database contains data from 528 organizations and 20 million respondents. We can provide aggregated benchmark data to our customers in a variety of cuts and measures with the goal of helping them better understand their listening event results.

Benchmark Database: Data Processing 

Perceptyx gathers data from listening event respondents including responses to commonly used scaled items and select characteristics of respondents, such as job function. This data is deidentified by stripping identifiers, gathering only select information, and generalizing demographics. An example of demographic generalization would be aligning a demographic option, like Human Resources – Payroll Specialist, to a broad area, such as Human Resources. This deidentified data is used only internally within Perceptyx and is retained for a total of

five years. The data is used to facilitate creation and maintenance of our benchmark library, fulfill custom benchmark requests, and fuel our understanding of the employee experience.

Aggregated benchmark data meeting our reporting thresholds (3 customer organizations AND 5 respondents per data cut, per organization, per item) is reported to customers who use Perceptyx benchmarks. This aggregated data format is retained indefinitely.
