A brief description of the institution’s methodology for evaluating employee satisfaction:
University of San Diego has recently carried out an employee satisfaction survey, which was done as part of the San Diego Union Tribune’s “Top Work Place in San Diego 2013” awards program. This is done in conjunction with the Workplace Dynamics Partnership, which prepared the survey. USD was invited to participate in the survey after being nominated for the awards by an employee. The Survey was sent to 1487 full-time and 145 part time employees. It mostly uses semantic scaling and enable the employee to provide their opinion on how the work place and culture functions and rate their satisfaction level based different parameters such as work place attitudes, culture, organization, promotion, pay, etc. USD plans to carry out such a survey once every several years and address any concerns raised.
