How do I create a questionnaire question?

Go to Safety > Questionnaire, click Create, enter the question and who should answer it, add up to three answers, then click Create.

What a questionnaire is​

  • A set of check-in questions for the people who come to your sites, for example "Have you completed today's site induction?"
  • Each question has up to three answer options. People answer by ticking an option.

Before you start​

  • Think about the exact wording first. You can't edit a question after you create it.

Steps​

  1. In the left menu, under Safety, click Questionnaire.
  2. Click Create in the top-right corner. The Create Question window opens.
  3. Enter a Question Name* to help you find it later (2 to 50 characters). Only admins see it.
  4. In User Type*, tick who should answer: Worker, Contractor, Site Manager or Visitor. You can tick more than one.
  5. Enter the Question* people will see (2 to 100 characters), then click Next.
  6. In Answer 1*, type the first answer, for example "Yes" (2 to 50 characters).
  7. To add another answer, click Answer Options. To remove one, click the X next to it.
  8. Click Create. You see "Questionnaire created successfully."

First step of Create Question with the name, user type and question filled in

Good to know​

  • Type is already set to checkbox and can't be changed.
  • To change a question later, delete it and create a new one. See How do I delete a questionnaire question?
  • The Questionnaire page doesn't show the answers people have given.

If something goes wrong​

  • Next doesn't move on: check Question Name, User Type and Question are filled in and the right length.
  • Can't add a fourth answer: each question can have a maximum of three answer options.
  • Can't see Questionnaire: these features may not be turned on for your organisation. Ask your Swift Checkin administrator.
