R.E.: Well-Being at [service 6] Work Survey
Dear Sir/Madam
Thank you for considering taking part in this organisational survey.
The purpose of this survey is two-fold: to allow the organisation to gauge
levels of stress, and to understand what stressors that you as an
employee face in your working day. The results of this survey are going to
be used, in conjunction with further research which you may be invited to
take part in, to deal with some of the stressors encountered.
The main premise of this survey, combined with the future research
which is to take place in the next couple of months, is to listen to your
views and opinions as to what is happening in the organisation. Therefore
interventions to deal with stress will be designed by implementing your
suggestions, as we all understand that you know what issues you face at
work.
As such, please find attached a copy of the Survey Tools for completion.
These tools are:
1. Management Standards Indicator Tool: a tool designed by the
Health and Safety Executive to assess the type workplace stress you may
be feeling.
2. Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey: a tool designed to
assess the potential impact of these stressors.
It is understood that the confidentiality of your answers is very
important to you. As such we have tried as hard as possible to show you
that your answering is confidential and that there are no agendas here.
Therefore your response is going to be sent to the lead researcher at
Anglia Ruskin University, via [name of wellbeing officer] at [name of PAO].
There are also to be no names or identifiable features asked for on the
questionnaires, and as such there will be no way that answers given can
be traced back to any particular individual.
In completing the questionnaire please do not take too long or dwell on
questions - immediate responses are likely to be the most accurate.
Therefore this should take you no more than 5 to 10 minutes to complete.
Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey. Your participation
is going to play an important part in the well-being strategy of [name of
PAO].
Yours sincerely,
