UK@Work

UK@Work was a survey conducted in October 2005 and February 2006. Over 50% of faculty and staff members responded to the survey. The staff and faculty surveys focused on several broad themes: work environment, work-life effectiveness, diversity, and recruitment/retention. The goal of the survey was to identify a positive work environment in which employees would remain, contributing to a diverse and dynamic workforce. To become a Top 20 institution UK must be a Top 20 workplace. The survey contributed to the creation of the Work-Life Office identifying areas in which employees desired resources, services, and information.
