The University of Alabama Workplace Experience Survey - 2018

The University of Alabama is committed to fulfilling the goals of our strategic plan, Advancing the Flagship. In order to further address a key goal of the plan to "Provide opportunities and resources that facilitate work-life balance and enhance the recruitment and retention of outstanding faculty and staff," the University partnered with ModernThink to conduct a survey of all faculty and staff regarding their workplace experience. The survey was conducted from March 26 to April 13 of 2018.

President Stuart Bell and the entire campus leadership team support this effort and are committed to using the results to make improvements where possible.

It is important to note that this survey is not an end in itself, but a beginning. The University will need further research in the area of work-life balance. In addition, the University plans to repeat this same survey within the next three years to measure change and assess engagement.
