1% is not that low, a typical poll has much less than that. E.g. a Gallup poll generally interviews about 1000 individuals to represent the whole of the US.

Selection bias is a much larger problem here.

Because it wouldn't be economical to hire hundreds of thousands of call takers to reach everyone in the US in a single week.

There's no reason a company could not send out a one-question survey link to all of it's employees with one click if they wanted to get reliable data.

An important point - at least Gallup publishes some details on its methodologies.
