Employee feedback requested: Respond by Jan. 24 to Human Resources – Benefits survey

There is still time to complete the brief, two-part survey created by Human Resources – Benefits to collect employee feedback on open enrollment and health and wellness offerings at the university. The survey will remain open through Jan. 24.

“Employee engagement and feedback regarding what programs and resources we have available and how we share that information is a top priority for our team,” says Candace Shaffer, senior director of benefits in Human Resources. “The more we hear from our faculty and staff the better we are in regard to addressing concerns, implementing new programs and restructuring what’s already in place as needed.

“For instance, in 2019, we reviewed our annual survey and published a one-page action response indicating what we learned from the employee feedback, as well as what we planned to do in response to that feedback. And our planning continues.”

Survey results are anonymous and will be used by Human Resources – Benefits, stakeholder groups and LHD Advisors for planning of future benefits packages and wellness offerings. Supporting the five Healthy Boiler pillars -- behavioral health, financial wellness, physical health, social wellness and work-life integration -- through new and enhanced programming continues to be the priority.

“Participating in this survey is the best way for employees to share their opinions, experiences and suggestions that help us move forward," Shaffer says. "We appreciate and look forward to what the faculty and staff have to say.”

All employees who complete the survey will receive an incentive for their participation. To keep responses anonymous, upon completion of the survey, employees will be redirected to a separate survey to provide name and campus building to mail the incentive.
