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

UMass Lowell has not undertaken a formal survey for evaluating employee satisfaction and engagement since 2012, however, the University feels strongly that informal measures are in place that allow employees to provide feedback on these areas. In some instances the feedback is anonymous, but the Department of Human Resources strives to work with other Departments and groups across campus to create a safe environment where all employees feel that their feedback is heard, valued, and considered.


A brief description of the mechanism(s) by which the institution addresses issues raised by the evaluation (including examples from the previous three years):

UMass Lowell provides routine training on performance appraisal managements, one to one sessions with employees or managers and collaboration with the labor units.
