The Employee Survey is conducted annually to obtain staff views about various aspects of working in the Scottish Government and its agencies. It identifies what works well in the organisation and what could be improved, with a particular focus on employee engagement. The results help us to develop appropriate actions to make us a more effective organisation recognising the acknowledged benefits of having an engaged workforce.
The 2010 Employee Survey was part of the UK wide Civil Service People Survey covering nearly 500,000 civil servants. You can find out more about the Civil Service People's Survey and view results for the service as a whole by visiting the Civil Service website. The Scottish Government has conducted an employee survey measuring employee engagement since 2005.
