9. Staff Experience Dignity at Work
As many of you will be aware
previous Staff Survey has been discontinued
This year NHSScotland national staff experience will be measured using iMatter supplemented by an additional short questionnaire- The Dignity at Work Survey.
The information from the DaW survey results is intended to supplement the information obtained through iMatter to offer a complete measure of staff experience.

10. 6-27 November
5 minutes to complete
will be made available to all NHSScotland staff and to those social care staff whose HSCP chooses to participate.
iMatter results are available at team level, DaW Survey will only be available at Directorate/organisation level.
published alongside iMatter results in the NHSScotland Staff Experience Report which is expected to be publicly available in February 2018

11. Survey Questions • bullying and harassment • discrimination
• abuse and violence from patients and public
• resourcing
• whistleblowing
These new arrangements have been developed in partnership in response to
• low participation rates of previous Staff Surveys (the highest average response rate was 38% in 2015)
• recognition of the limitations of this method of measuring, monitoring and addressing staff experience and
• the success of iMatter (results from show at 63% response rate) and evidence of improvements through success stories which are being shared and will feature in the national report.
These Partnership discussions included conversations as to how we could ensure that we captured all of the staff experience information which was previously gathered through the staff survey.
Whilst iMatter covers 95% of the questions previously asked, 5% of questions which relate to dignity at work issues are not included because they are not deemed suitable for including in team discussions.
It was therefore agreed that the survey would ask questions about- see slide
Demographic questions about age, gender, disability, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion and staff grouping questions were also given consideration by a short-life working group.
It was agreed that to mirror the approach taken for the Staff Survey, the survey will also ask participants to offer information about their demographics and staff group. Categories offered reflect those on eESS as in future we are looking to draw this information directly from eESS .
the demographic questions will reflect the 6 ‘protected characteristic’ questions asked in the census and those categories on eESS
staff grouping questions will be in line with the 11 high level staff groupings currently held on eESS
