Anonymous employee chat

Create a culture of openness with a secure and anonymous employee chat. Eletive’s anonymous chat for employees lets your people speak up - privately, safely, and with confidence. It’s a core element of Eletive’s employee feedback system and a vital tool for driving psychological safety and trust.
Give employees a safe space to talk
Sensitive topics like harassment, discrimination, and burnout can be hard to raise. With Eletive’s anonymous employee chat, your team gets a confidential space to voice concerns and share ideas - without fear of judgment or retaliation.

Prevent silence
and surface hidden issues
Encourage honest feedback
in real time
