  • Interesting survey results

    Posted on March 17th, 2009 Eric 4 comments

    We recently participated in a survey about employee opinions on options to help ease the budget issues we are all facing in the UNC system. The survey results were posted today and I am pretty shocked at the results.

    My take on the data is people would rather see friends and co-workers get potentially laid off than take voluntary leave based on the data presented. What I don’t understand is if given the option people would take a voluntary leave of up to 5 days but would be against the same measure if it was mandated.

    Some of the demographics on the survey were surprising as well, the majority of respondents were in the 46-55 age bracket but yet over 40% had less than 5 years of service.

    I’m still trying to wrap my head around the figures. This is totally contradictory to something I read on Twitter last week, linked by LLiu.
