Staff Survey 2018 - have you participated yet?
Monday, 12 November 2018
The University’s 2018 Staff Survey is open until 10 December.
You should have received an email from Capita inviting you to participate in the survey. Titled “University of Reading – Staff Survey 2018”, the email contained a link to the survey and a passcode unique to you.
If you have not received this email, please first check your Junk E-mail folder.
If you cannot find the email there, please email Capita at surveyenquiries@capita.co.uk or call its Freephone helpline 0800 587 3115 (+44 1423 818700, if you are dialling from outside the UK). They can reissue the survey invite to you, with the survey link and the unique passcode.
The 2018 Staff Survey is shorter than the one colleagues completed last year and should take only 10 to 15 minutes. The survey includes questions about your experience of working at the University, the leadership and management it provides and communication.
You can complete the survey online or, if you do not have access to an internet-connected device, on paper or over the telephone with a trained member of Capita’s team. You will be given time during your working day to complete the survey.
Your feedback will be completely anonymous. Capita Surveys & Research is an external company with experience of working with 60 other universities on employee surveys. More information about the survey is available on the 2018 Staff Survey webpage.
