Survey reminder
A link with your personal survey link if you haven't yet answered the current survey.
Reminder email send-out time aligns with the survey send-out time.
  • First email is half way through the survey round.
  • Subsequent emails are every 4 days.
Reminder emails only trigger on working days, unless the administrator manually triggers a reminder. Manual reminder emails don't affect the schedule of automated reminders.
Administrators can manually trigger an instant reminder, or Set Survey Reminder Date.

Reactivation
Reactivation emails replace the survey email and reminder email when an employee skips 3 consecutive survey rounds. It tries to encourage employees by providing the current participation metric.
After 3 reactivation attempts, the survey reverts to regular emails for the employee.
The reactivation emails will trigger again if the employee skips 3 consecutive survey rounds.
Mirrors the cadence of survey and reminder emails.
