Appendix |
Glossary of key terms |
% positive is the proportion who selected either "agree" or "strongly agree" for a question |
or all questions within a theme in the case of the theme score % positive |
Comparisons to the previous survey relate to the results from the 2010 Civil Service People Survey |
Where a question is flagged as changed since the last survey comparisons should be treated with caution as changes to wording may affect how people respond |
The CS2011 benchmark is the median percent positive across all organisations that participated in the 2011 Civil Service People Survey |
For each question, the CS High Performers is the upper quartile score across all organisations that have taken part in the 2011 Civil Service People Survey |
Rounding |
Results are presented as whole numbers for ease of reading, with rounding performed at the last stage of calculation for maximum accuracy |
Statistical significance |
Statistical testing has been carried out on the comparisons between this year's results and your previous survey |
CS2011 results and CS High Performers results to identify results that are statistically significant |
You can therefore be confident that the difference represents a real difference in opinion between the results |
The employee engagement index |
The survey includes five questions that make up the engagement index (B50-B54) |
The index score represents the average level of engagement in that unit and ranges from 0 to 100 |
An index score of 0 represents all respondents in that unit saying they strongly disagree to all five engagement questions |
a score of 100 represents all respondents saying they strongly agree to all five engagement questions |
The drivers of engagement |
While the engagement index shows the average level of engagement, it does not show what you can do to improve engagement |
Nine themes have been included in the survey to measure employees experiences at work |
A statistical technique, stepwise regression, is used to identify the extent to which each of these themes has an association with engagement |
The themes identified as having an association are called the Drivers of engagement |
The strength of association with engagement varies by theme and is rated out of 4 |
Themes rated 4 out of 4 have the strongest association with engagement |
Confidentiality |
This survey was carried out as part of the 2011 Civil Service People Survey |
This is managed by the Cabinet Office on behalf of all the participating organisations |
The Cabinet Office commissioned ORC International to carry out the survey |
ORC International is a member of the Market Research Society, and is bound by their strict code of conduct and confidentiality rules |
These rules do not allow for the breakdown of the results to the extent where the anonymity of individuals may be compromised |
Groups of less than 10 respondents will not be reported on |
however their responses do contribute to the overall scores for the unit and organisation they belong to and the overall Civil Service results |
