A brief description of the institution’s methodology for evaluating employee satisfaction and engagement:

The Office of Employee and Labor Relations administers an employee exit survey which evaluates specific work factors, general work experience, and asks for additional suggestions and comments. Additionally, a variety of surveys are done at the departmental level to assess employee satisfaction.
It is the policy of Florida State University to provide University Support Personnel System (USPS) and Administrative and Professional (A&P) employees with an internal Complaint Procedure to provide a formal mechanism to bring complaints to the attention of management and to address those complaints. It is FSU policy that there shall be no reprisals against any of the participants for participation in this Complaint Procedure.
An employee who has a complaint or grievance is encouraged to discuss with his or her supervisor with the option of utilizing the University's Mediation Program administered by the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) prior to the filing of a formal complaint or grievance.

If deemed necessary, the supervisor will include management, Director or Department Head, followed by review from a Complaint Review Officer, with a final decision written by the University Vice President within 90 days of the original complaint.
