survey

Post by boogyman »

Any one know through the union do we have to fill these surveys in at work or can you take them home or do you have to fill them in at all ? My work partner 9am starter said he was told to come in tomorrow half hour early to fill it with the union present while filling it in.

You do not have to fill the survey in and you can take it home if you so wish

Completion of the survey is not mandatory although we would highly encourage all employees to take the opportunity to give their view.

As this is a work-related survey, employees have been allocated time at work (during their WTLL) to complete the survey, rather than expecting employees to fill in their survey at home in their own time. This process of completing the surveys at work is standard practice in many companies.

Each survey should have been given out in an envelope as part of a pack. Each pack contained the survey itself and a pre-paid envelope with Ipsos MORI’s address for returning the survey once completed. Ipsos MORI is an independent research company conducting the survey on RMG’s behalf. All employees can be confident that their answers will be treated in complete confidence. Ipsos MORI promises that surveys will never be linked to an individual. Ipsos MORI is a member of the Market Research Society. As a member, they are bound by its Code of Conduct not to identify individual respondents’ views.

Surveys should not have been handed back to managers without being sealed in the pre-paid/pre-addressed envelope. Managers should collect the sealed packs and return them in bulk via recorded delivery to Ipsos MORI (ideally using the bags that they arrived in). If employees specifically wish to, they can take the survey home and complete it and then return it in the post in the pre-paid and pre-addressed envelope direct to Ipsos MORI.

We ask people to take part in the survey so that they can share their views in a fair and consistent way, we also give people the opportunity to do this in a confidential environment. The survey gives people the chance to say what they want without being concerned about people finding out what they individually said. Also, only by surveying everyone in RMG will we get an overall view of what people think and be able to respond to that at a corporate level.

I hope I have provided some reassurance but please let me know if I can help further.

Kind regards

Jane

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Last week I was asked to do mine. They refused when I asked to do it at home. Was not happy.

every year we get this same question! its simple, you can do it at work,you can take it home or you can decline to do it if you want!
managers like to get reps involved in this as it can encourage people to take part which i dont see a problem with aslong as nobody is pressuring anyone to do it there & then.
hope this helps!

Are these surveys really confidential ? The ones I've had/seen in the past have "serial" numbers - which to me says that they aren't anonymous. The numbers might only, for eg, be traceable to a region/office - but using good old fashioned detective work wouldn't be difficult to link to an individual.

Why do managers insist you fill them in? Our manager has been going round making sure everyone has taken part in it, what's it to them?
