The last institution-wide survey was conducted in 2022 and measured employee engagement across 42 different drivers. Building on that foundation, this year's pulse survey has been intentionally designed to be shorter, more focused, and easier to complete, concentrating on key institutional priorities and areas for improvement previously identified. It should take approximately 10 minutes to complete.
Survey Design
Queen’s has again engaged an experienced consultant, Metrics@Work, to administer the Employee Experiences Survey. The survey questions come from their database of empirically tested questions with benchmarking data from other Canadian universities. Some additional questions have been added to measure areas that are relevant to Queen's and our people.
The survey consists of several Likert scale questions as well as additional open-ended questions. It will take approximately 10 minutes to complete and is open to all employees.
Privacy and Confidentiality
Survey responses are strictly confidential and will be used for the purpose of taking action to improve experiences of employees at Queen’s. Metrics@Work will keep all individual responses anonymous so Queen’s or any third party will never be able to identify individual responses.
Please refer to the FAQs for more details about Metrics@Work, the survey, and how your privacy and confidentiality will be assured.
