Have your say on our employee survey

As part of our commitment to making our council a great place to work, Organisational Development is reviewing our employee survey to ensure that it reflects the issues and opportunities most relevant to our teams. Your voice is important so the team is inviting colleagues to join drop-in sessions where they will gather ideas for questions to shape the survey.  

This is an opportunity for you to:  

  • identify the topics that matter most to employees
  • ensure questions are clear, meaningful, and actionable
  • build a survey that provides valuable insights for improving our workplace
