Staff@Work™ Survey
The Staff@Work (S@W) Survey™ biennially asks staff (both represented and not-represented) to contribute their anonymous feedback about perceptions of their workplace. The survey is the first of its kind in the UC System.
The survey has been statistically validated to measure 6 key dimensions concerning:
- Satisfaction with the University
- Department Mission and Goals
- Department Diversity and Climate
- Department Effectiveness
- Supervisor Effectiveness
- Employee Effectiveness
An additional 24 items ask respondents to indicate whether or not they have experienced any of a set of negative interpersonal behaviors, including behavior related to their race/ethnicity or gender. People are also provided with items allowing them to self-identify their ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and other demographic categories.
S@W and CUCSA Survey
The Council of University of California Staff Assemblies (CUCSA) survey provides a high-level snapshot of the views, experiences, and needs of policy covered staff on a range of topics related to working at UC. The S@W survey drills down and is actionable at the unit-level. For example: stats show 60% workforce not engaged (Gallup). The Staff@Work survey looks into what specifically can be done at the ground-level to improve this.
