## Wellbeing

Unlike the questions B01-B62 which ask people to rate their agreement from strongly agree to strongly disagree, the four wellbeing questions use a 11-point scale. This scale ranges from 0 to 10 for each question, where 0 is equivalent to 'not at all' (e.g. 'not all at satisfied' or 'not at all worthwhile') and where 10 is equivalent to 'completely' (e.g. 'completely satisfied' or 'completely anxious'). For questions W01, W02 and W03 the percent positive is the proportion answering 7, 8, 9 or 10 to each question. For question W04 the percent positive is the proportion answering 0, 1, 2 or 3 to the question.

W01. Overall, how satisfied are you with your life nowadays? W02. Overall, to what extent do you feel that the things you do in your life are worthwhile?

The proportion who selected either "agree" or "strongly agree" for a question (or all questions within a theme in the

case of **Theme score % positive**). 
Comparisons to the previous survey relate to the results from the 2012 Civil Service People Survey. Where a 
Previous survey 
question is flagged as changed since the last survey comparisons should be treated with caution as changes to 
wording may affect how people respond to the question. The CS2013 benchmark is the median percent positive across all organisations that participated in the 2013 Civil

Service People Survey. 
CS High 
For each question, this is the upper quartile score across all organisations that have taken part in the 2013 Civil

Service People Survey. 

## Rounding

Results are presented as whole numbers for ease of reading, with rounding performed at the last stage of calculation for maximum accuracy. 

## Statistical Significance:

Statistical testing has been carried out on the comparisons between this year's results and your previous survey, CS2013 results and CS High Performers results to identify differences that are statistically significant. You can therefore be confident that the difference represents a real difference in opinion between the results. 

## The Employee Engagement Index

The survey includes five questions that make up the engagement index (B50-B54). The index score represents the average level of engagement in that unit and ranges from 0 to 100. An index score of 0 represents all respondents in that unit saying they strongly disagree to all five engagement questions and a score of 100 represents all respondents saying they strongly agree to all five engagement questions. 

## The Drivers Of Engagement

While the engagement index shows the average level of engagement, it does not show what you can do to improve engagement. Nine themes have been included in the survey to measure employees' experiences at work. A statistical technique, stepwise regression, is used to identify the extent to which each of these themes has an association with engagement. The themes identified as having an association are called the 'Drivers of engagement'. The strength of association with engagement varies by theme and is illustrated by a 4-bar icon, as show below. Themes with a full 4-bar icon have the strongest association with engagement.

## Confidentiality

This survey was carried out as part of the 2013 Civil Service People Survey, which is managed by the Cabinet Office on behalf of all the participating organisations. The Cabinet Office commissioned ORC International to carry out the survey. ORC International is a member of the Market Research Society, and is bound by their strict code of conduct and confidentiality rules. These rules do not allow for the breakdown of the results to the extent where the anonymity of individuals may be compromised. Groups of less than 10 respondents will not be reported on, however their responses do contribute to the overall scores for the unit and organisation they belong to and the overall Civil Service results.
