Suggestion log
Workplace registerIdeas raised about the workplace, and — the part that matters — what was done about each.
The response is the point
Logging ideas is easy and worthless on its own. What keeps a scheme alive is a visible record of what happened to each one — including a straight no with a reason.
Not an anonymous channel
Nothing is transmitted. This is a log kept by whoever runs the workplace, on their device, and it promises nobody anonymity.
Around it
Something raised as a complaint is the grievance log. An idea that turns into work is a work order.
A log of ideas and what was done about them. Nothing is transmitted anywhere and it is not an anonymous reporting channel. Everything runs on your device.
Questions people ask
- Can people submit anonymously?
- Not through this tool, and it does not pretend otherwise. Nothing here is submitted or transmitted anywhere — everything stays in this browser. A tool that cannot deliver a message should not promise anybody confidentiality it is not in a position to keep. Who raised a suggestion is simply optional.
- Why is the person optional?
- Because a suggestion is worth acting on whoever it came from, and requiring a name turns the log into a reason not to suggest anything.
- What makes a suggestion scheme work?
- The response column. Schemes die when people stop believing anything happens, and the cheapest fix is a visible record of what was done — including the ones you decided against, and why.
- Should complaints go here?
- No. Something raised as a grievance belongs in the grievance log, which is built to hold it neutrally and to keep the file elsewhere.
