Voice Your Perspective: The 2024 UNM Employee Engagement Survey is Now Open

UNM Faculty and Staff are invited to complete the 2024 Employee Engagement Survey, accessible now through March 8. Confidentiality is assured, and individual responses will not be disclosed. Now in its second year, the survey provides a platform for employees to share their perspectives on their workplace experience and aligns with UNM's Goal 4 of UNM 2040, aiming for a sustainable and high-quality workforce. Invitations are being sent via email from Gallup, the global analytics and data gathering company. Employee participation is crucial for assessing well-being, efficiency, innovation, and performance at UNM. For more information about the 2023 survey and its results, visit the UNM Engagement website.

Why Take the Survey?

Building on the 2023 survey, where 48% of employees identified as "actively engaged," UNM Human Resources has launched several key initiatives to act on the 2023 survey results. These include a revamp of required supervisor training and an enhancement of support resources, and partnerships with Staff Council to bolster employee recognition programs, based on the feedback received.

This year's survey is being conducted earlier to integrate results into planning processes for the next academic year.
