Staff survey
The University first ran a staff survey in 2008 and again in 2011. Staff were invited to give their opinion on topics such as:
- Communication
- Learning and development
- Leadership and management
- Health and wellbeing
- Pay and benefits
Here is a copy of the 2011 questionnaire [pdf].
Staff survey 2011 - response rate
- The overall response rate was 67% - a very good rate for surveys of this kind
- A charitable donation of £4,572 was shared equally between Yorkshire Cancer Research and the Student Hardship Fund) on the basis of this response rate
Staff survey 2011 - results and action plans
- See key findings for the University and more detailed results here
- The University Action plan in response to the issues raised was published in March 2012.
- To see a summary of progress with the University action plan, see our latest Staff Survey Newsletter [pdf]
We will continue to run the staff survey every 2-3 years so we can measure change over time and identify further areas for improvement. Our next survey will take place in Spring 2014 and the Employee Engagement Steering Group will play a lead role in shaping this. In the meantime, the University and individual departments will continue to implement plans to improve the quality of working lives at the University.
