Survey of Perceived Organizational Support (SPOS) Test - Symptoms and Signs
This brief self-report measure assesses employees’ perceived organizational support, or the extent to which they believe their organization values their contributions and cares about their well-being. The Survey of Perceived Organizational Support (SPOS) is commonly used in organizational and occupational assessment contexts to inform workforce climate and employee experience evaluations.
It consists of 8 items and typically requires about 2 minutes to complete. Items are designed to capture respondents’ subjective perceptions rather than objectively verifiable workplace conditions.
Results from the Survey of Perceived Organizational Support (SPOS) may be used to characterize perceived support at the individual or group level and to complement broader assessment batteries (e.g., engagement, stress, or retention-related measures). The measure is attributed to Debora Sowa, Steven Hutchison, Robin Huntington, and Robert Eisenberger.
