Table 8 above shows the demographic information for all of those who took part in the overall survey of the
participating service. It was made clear that each of these questions were not compulsory to answer, meaning
individuals had a choice either not to log a response or “Prefer Not to Say” as well as the available responses.
Additionally, each of the categories was chosen because they fit into the approaches used in previous
organisational surveys. While 15 employees decided not to state their gender and 12 did not respond, the majority
of respondents were female (46.6%, n=61) with 32.1% (n=42) male responses. With respect to the ‘Age’ category,
most respondents were 41-50 years of age (29.8%; n=39) while no respondents were 20 or under. Finally, the
Length of Employment demographic noted that the majority of respondents had 10 years service or more, while
just 1 individual had worked for the PAO for less than 6 months.
