This 2014 Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey Report provides summary results for subagencies within your 

department or agency. The results include response percentages for each survey item. The definitions for the 

Positive, Neutral, and Negative response percentages vary in the following ways across the three primary 

response scales used in the survey: 

Positive: Strongly Agree and Agree / Very Satisfied and Satisfied / Very Good and Good 

Neutral: Neither Agree nor Disagree / Neither Satisfied nor Dissatisfied / Fair 

Negative: Disagree and Strongly Disagree / Dissatisfied and Very Dissatisfied / Poor and Very Poor 

Positive, Neutral, and Negative percentages are based on the total number of responses (N) that are in these three 

categories. The number of Do Not Know (DNK) or No Basis to Judge (NBJ) responses, where applicable, is 

listed separately. 

Note: The report tables that follow do not include results for any subagency listed in the Response Summary table 

(above) that had fewer than 10 completed surveys.
