Organizational Support Assessment

~2 min · 8 questions · Free partial report

Eight statements about whether your organization values your contributions and cares about your well-being. The result is a single score: high means you believe the organization is on your side; low means you feel replaceable. Perceived organizational support predicts engagement, performance, and retention — it is one of the strongest signals that an employee will go above and beyond or start looking elsewhere.

Eight items measuring how much you believe your organization values your contributions and cares about your wellbeing.

What you'll discover

Scientific basis

Why trust this instrument.

NOESIS adaptation inspired by Eisenberger et al.'s (1986) Survey of Perceived Organizational Support (SPOS). Eight independently developed items on a 7-point agreement scale, two reverse-scored. The original SPOS (36 items, shortened to 8) shows alpha .90-.93 and is one of the strongest predictors of employee engagement, organizational citizenship, and retention. Scored as mean (range 1-7).

Authors:

Scientific foundation

The theory behind this test.

Organizational Support Theory

The belief that the organization values employees' contributions and cares about their well-being. High perceived organizational support creates a felt obligation to reciprocate with increased effort and loyalty, and reduces withdrawal behaviours.

What you will discover

Questions the report answers.

Does my organization have my back?

Your score reflects how much you believe the organization values you as a person, not just as a resource. Higher means you feel supported; lower means you feel disposable.

Who is this for

Who benefits most.

Employee checking in

Wants a validated read on whether they feel supported, beyond gut feeling.

People operations team

Running aggregate POS alongside engagement surveys for a fuller picture.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does perceived organizational support predict?

Higher POS predicts greater organizational commitment, job satisfaction, and citizenship behaviors, and lower turnover intentions. It is one of the strongest predictors of discretionary effort.

Why are some items reversed?

Two items describe the organization not caring. If you agree with those, your support score goes down. This prevents people from agreeing with everything and getting a misleadingly high score.
