The Employee Opinion Survey is a customizable, anonymous survey administered on-line to your employees by the WASB staff. The Survey gauges your employees’ opinions on a range of issues related to the operation of your district to guide your work in crafting employee handbooks, building relationships and improving services. If administered annually, your district can track trends and determine the impact of employee-related initiatives.
What types of information does the survey solicit?
The WASB staff can customize the survey to fit your district's specific needs, but the standards survey will question your employees about:
Demographics
Job Satisfaction
Support from Coworkers
Working Conditions
Compensation and Benefits
District Communications
Supervisor Support
Satisfaction with District Technology and Equipment
Assistance from Human Resources
Teacher Support
Curriculum and Instructional Support
Student Discipline Support
Training and Workplace Safety
What will the WASB do with the information once
employees have completed the survey?
WASB staff will compile the responses into a summary report and provide a basic analysis of the results for a fee of $500. For an additional fee, WASB staff will provide an in-depth analysis of the results and provide suggestions for areas that may need improvement. The summary report will contain high-quality, detailed graphs and charts to illustrate employee responses, and if your district chooses to administer the survey annually, the district can track trends, changes and improvements over time.
Example -
In the Compensation and Benefits section of the survey, employees will be asked whether they believe the pay and benefits they receive are competitive with the pay and benefits received by similarly situated employees in neighboring and/or comparable districts. With this information, the district may discover that, while the compensation it provides to district employees is competitive with neighboring and/or comparable districts, it must communicate that information to its employees more effectively.
