Details

The 10th annual Civil Service People Survey was conducted across 102 Civil Service organisations, including government departments, executive agencies and Crown non-departmental public bodies.

The fieldwork for the survey ran from 1 to 31 October, with 98% participating online and 2% completing paper questionnaires. 302,170 people participated in the survey, an overall response rate of 66.4%.

The benchmark report shows results from the Civil Service People Survey from 2009 to 2018. The benchmark for a survey measure is the median (mid-point) score of all participating organisations. The questions are used to generate 10 headline indicators; 1 to measure the levels of employee engagement and 9 to measure the factors which influence engagement.
