Local Government Workplace Survey Testimonials

Jerry Wrenn   Manager Human Resources , Porirua City Council

“The quality design of JRA's survey delivers excellent benchmarking opportunities with not only other organisations, but also within the local government sector. The ease with which staff are able to complete the survey is a definite benefit for us, and the support mechanisms offered following the release of the findings are professionally delivered. Focusing on our ‘key drivers of employee engagement’ has also resulted in positive change within Council.”

Barbara Faulkner   Executive Officer Human Resources, Western Bay of Plenty District Council

"The Local Government Workplace Survey suited our organisation well, as we could start with JRA's generic questionnaire and then add our own customised questions. Using JRA’s generic questionnaire meant that we could benchmark our results against other local government organisations, which helped put our results into perspective. We have found working with the JRA team fantastic, and highly recommend them."

Miles McConway  Group Manager HR & Corporate Services, Environment BOP

"We have participated in the survey since 2002. It has become our major climate survey tool and has assisted us each year in identifying the areas needed to work on to maintain and enhance the health and well-being of the organisation. The ability to benchmark our results against similar organisations has been beneficial and reassuring. Being online has made it easy for our organisation to participate and has resulted in high response rates, ensuring our data is statistically valid and a true reflection of our organisation and the people in it."
