Staff survey 2009: Have your say

Do you want to shape your place of work?

Look out for the UCL Staff Survey which will run from 9-27 March 2009. The survey presents a great opportunity for all members of staff to communicate their opinions about UCL as a place to work.

The survey is short, convenient and anonymous: it will only take 15 minutes to complete and will be distributed through email. Staff who do not have access to the internet will be given a hard copy by their manager.

The first staff survey in 2004/2005 indicated areas which were important to UCL staff. Many of you were concerned about improving the way we all work together and a variety of initiatives have been introduced to make this happen; for example, breaking down the barriers between academic and administrative staff through harmonising employment terms and benefits and developing common management approaches. All UCL staff are now given opportunities to develop their skills through an extensive staff training programme, improved appraisal processes and the development of initiatives to ensure staff equality. 

More announcements and posters about the staff survey will follow over the next two months. In the meantime, note the date in your diary as a reminder to have your say.
