Has the institution conducted a survey or other evaluation that allows for anonymous feedback to measure employee satisfaction and engagement during the previous three years?:
Yes

Percentage of employees assessed, directly or by representative sample:
100

A brief description of the institution’s methodology for evaluating employee satisfaction and engagement:
The survey is done using a representative sample of staff and faculty on campus. The survey will be delivered via email to 600 randomly selected faculty and staff by the Chronicle of Higher Education, which will keep the identities of those chosen to participate confidentially. If you received the email, titled The Great Colleges to Work For 2022 Faculty/Staff Survey in the subject line, I encourage you to take some time and complete the survey. Recognition analysis for the Great Colleges to Work For® program is conducted by ModernThink, an organizational development firm with particular survey and “Best Place to Work” expertise.

A brief description of the mechanism(s) by which the institution addresses issues raised by the evaluation:
Texas Tech University will once again participate in the Chronicle of Higher Education’s “Great Colleges to Work For” survey. The survey measures the strength of certain organizational competencies and relationships that most directly impact and influence an institution’s culture.
Texas Tech earned recognition in six categories this year:

Job satisfaction and support
Compensation and benefits
Professional development
Faculty and staff well-being
Confidence in senior leadership
Mission and pride

Results will determine areas of improvement by category.
