Employee Survey is an important part of assessing the
engagement of Treasury employees. The survey helps
ensure a customer-focused government and a work culture in
which employees are highly engaged, respected, and valued;
and have the opportunity to express and explore views on
issues related to their jobs. Treasury periodically conducts
internal pulse surveys for each business area, in order to
measure the success of actions taken to improve employee
engagement since the previous statewide survey. These
surveys include the question, “My Business Area has a
climate in which diverse perspectives are encouraged and
valued.”. Pulse surveys data is collected via SurveyMonkey
approximately twice a year. A Likert Scale is a type of rating
scale used to measure attitudes or opinions. With this scale,
respondents are asked to rate items by their level of
agreement (5-point Scale): Strongly Disagree (1), Disagree
(2), Undecided (3), Agree (4), Strongly Agree (5). Agree
scores are calculated by combining the ‘agree’ and ‘strongly
agree’ scores. A higher agree score represents overall
improvement in employee engagement for this measure.
