Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

WorkTango Anonymous Conversations is a feature that allows employees to engage in a candid, two-way dialogue with their manager or HR about their survey feedback, all while maintaining complete anonymity. This builds trust, clarifies complex employee issues, and helps leaders understand concerns without compromising confidentiality or psychological safety.

Whoever has permission to respond or acknowledge a comment in an employee survey can trigger an Anonymous Conversation. The employee receives an email from WorkTango with confidential messaging and a secret code to view and respond to the comment if desired, enabling safe, anonymous two-way dialogue.

WorkTango uses strict technical safeguards to strip identifying information from Anonymous Conversations. Managers can see the conversation content, but they never see the employee's name, ensuring psychological safety and protecting employee identity throughout the anonymous dialogue.

Typically, the Anonymous Conversation is routed to the employee's direct manager (for team-specific issues) or the HR team (for systemic or sensitive issues). WorkTango's routing rules are configurable based on your organizational structure, giving you flexibility in managing anonymous employee feedback.
